Summary: A great way to read the entire Bible.
Review: This One Year Bible is a great way to read the Bible through in one year. It is arranged so that you can read some of the Old Testament and New Testament every day. In addition you will read something from Psalms and Proverbs every day. This arrangement will allow you to read through the Psalms twice. The beauty of this plan is that you can pick it up and start any day of the year. I have personally read the Bible through this way every year for the last eight years and I never get tired of it.

Summary: Great way to get through the Bible, a little at a time!
Review: Three years ago, my daughter and I decided to read the Bible in one year. It was the first time all the way through for both of us. My daughter had the One Year Bible (NLT) in hardcover which we had given her for Christmas. And I had found this plan printed up in Brio magazine, so I just read the same passages in my study bible.This year our church's pastor challenged us to consider using The One Year Bible to get through it in one year. I decided to do it again and this time I am using the One Year Bible/NLT and my husband is using One Year Bible/NIV. I feel that the format keeps things interesting. A passage from the Old Testament, one from the New Testament, something from Psalms and a snippet of Proverbs each day. I am finding even more stuff that I missed the first time around! Amazing how the Bible is really "alive" and when you read it at different stages of your life, different passages impact you that you might not have noticed the time before. Rather than flipping around in the Bible, this book has the 365 daily readings nicely laid out for you. However, the only downside to this is sometimes you might not really be keeping track of what book of the Bible you're reading! That's very easy to do, especially with the short books both in the Old and New Testament. Another nice feature of this Bible is that for each day's selections, a passage is in bold type -something to pay special attention to. This method is great for someone who wants to read the Bible through, but doesn't want to go from Genesis to Revelation. Reading Mark's gospel really makes it easier to get through Leviticus! I'd highly recommend buying "The One Year Bible Companion". The subtitle is "Questions and answers to help you make the most of your daily Bible reading". There are 4 questions and answers per daily reading. Also, the Companion lists the passages to be read for the day at the top, so you could read in this order but with your own Bible. The questions help illuminate some of the somtimes confusing OT passages. The Companion also has brief introductions for all the books of the Bible. A bonus about "The One Year Bible Companion" - the cover is a very durable plastic-like cover. It's very durable and flexible. Just another added feature. And of course, it's available from Amazon! That's where I got mine! :-) Happy Bible Study, everyone!
