Technocrat7 at Technocracy unleashed writes about starting a one-year Bible reading plan in the middle of the year:
We’ve already read today’s passages. So far, so good. It’s not the first time that I’ve started studying Joshua in the middle of the book (a few years ago, I started attending a church group while a study of Joshua was underway). Joshua might not be the easier book to start reading in the middle of, but this way we’ll know right away if we start to fall behind.
Noël Piper in 2003 shared how she read the Bible in a year:
I didn’t begin in January. I simply let the Spirit push me into it “any time now.” I began in July.
I started in Hosea and read to the end of the Old Testament. I knew what had become of my efforts before when I had started quite literally, “in the beginning.” I also knew there were chunks of the minor prophets I had never laid eyes on. There’s something intriguing about unknown territory.
I didn’t try to read books in sequence. After Leviticus, I was ready for some adventure in Acts. I completed one book before I began another, except for the Psalms and Proverbs which I read in scattered chunks whenever I wanted to.
Any day is a good day to start reading your Bible.
