Chronological NIV Daily Reading Plans

The Chronological
ST U DY B I B LE
Da i ly R e a d i n g P l a n s
The following plans give you a system for reading
daily through The Chronological Study Bible in one
year or two years. The two-year plan is the same
as the one-year plan, except that you have an addi-
tional day to complete each reading portion. Some
portions are somewhat longer than others because
of the structure of The Chronological Study Bible.
In certain cases a longer Transition is spread over
more than one assignment, as indicated. In some
cases two or three short Transitions are grouped
into one assignment. When starting each Transi-
tion, be sure to read the Transition note at the be-
ginning. The page number indicates the location of
the Transition note.
