    One cool (and should I mention FREE) resource that I’ve been LOVING lately is the Daily Audio Bible Podcast! It’s basically a podcast in which a piece of the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs is read to you every day of the year. By the end of 1 year, you will have listened to the entire Bible!! While I don’t think that anything can top reading out of your own bible and marking it up, making notes and journaling about it, those days when life really is crazy you can listen to the Bible while doing something else such as driving or cleaning. You could also follow along in your own bible and make notes. Listening to it can keep your mind from wandering. They also switch translations every week, so you can here what different versions say!! I’ve also been picking up on things that I might’ve missed just reading (sometimes scanning 😳) the Bible on my own.

      If it helps people then that's great. I personally prefer to read it in print because I have trouble multitasking, so if I listen while doing something my mind deviates from listening.

If he trusted and believed in God would he not be in a better place? Or are you all so selfish you want him here suffering instead? I expect none of my questions to be answered. 😊

    Love this!! I've used multiple excuses in the past to not read my bible - too tired, failure, distracted, etc. But one of my goals this year is to read through the bible in a year. I found one that is undated so that if I miss a day, I don't feel like I have to try to catch up. I just start with the next days reading. The YouVersion Bible app is also great for setting reminders so that you don't forget and I love the different plans they offer. I love the audio versions that are available as well, so when I am tired or easily distracted, the audios help keep my focus while I'm reading along.

    I'm just starting to read the Bible, I became Christian just a month ago, and I must say that I thought it was going to be tedious, boring and hard to understand. But then, I started with Mark, I prayed for God to help me to understand his word, and when I was reading, I couldn't stop! It was so amazing and beautiful, and the miracles that Jesus did were just wonderful, and the lessons-- my Gosh I want to do a Bible-ish journal... so if you say that the Bible is boring then I guess you never read it or you never payed enough attention to it

    so glad you did a video like this; this was so raw and honest : ). I've literarily have made it a "nightly" routine to read my bible at least each night before i go to bed. i got one of those women's devotional bibles for christmas; i asked for it and my parents gave it to me, i was so excited : ). i have been wanting one since i starting being in my young adult years and can use it for many years to come.
    i love how it has a day of the week for each week then a page for the weekend : ). it also especially has at the back of it has a One Year Through The Bible, a 60 Day Overview of The Bible, a 30 Day For Beginning Your Work with Christ, a 30 Days with Jesus, and so on.
    so far i'm making my goal and sticking to it : ).
    i enjoy sitting in my bed at night right before i go to bed reading that days page then looking up scriptures for those pages that show a scripture : ) i've got the NIV version of it. i grew up having an NIV version. of course it has the books of the bible combined.
    HAPPY READING YOUR BIBLE AND MAKE IT A FIRST PRIORITY! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! : )

    My #1 Goal : set God as my number one priority. To grow my relationship with Him, study and LIVE His word, and spend time in His presence. To disconnect from the world and connect with Him. Fix my eyes on what is eternal and not be conformed to the patterns of this world. To let the light of Christ shine through me before others, through my actions, my words and my life style. To share the good news of Jesus. And to surrender everything to Him everyday and trust Him. To live in Him, for Him and through Him. Thank you Lord. Help me draw near to you and inspre people to do so. Help me to invest in my time and don't waste my life and my energy on temporary unfruitful things.❤

    Don't be afraid to read in the best translation for you! Just because you don't understand the Kings James Version doesn't make you a "bad Christian". The New Living Translation got me started in the Word, there are so many you can try out and find what you connect to
    I'm also reading through Inspired by Rachel Held Evans and I'm loving it as a book about scripture!

    I actually started wanting to study the Bible because of reason #7! I was journaling random quotes that I could relate to (not specifically googling bible verses) and I noticed that bible verses were THE most relatable that gave my heart peace. Because of that I started looking into videos on studying the Bible and I’m ordering my first ever personal bible this Thursday! I am so excited to get into the word. I went to church this past Sunday and the experience, I felt like the message was for me. Like God was talking to me and responding to my prayers. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼

    I got saved very young and never grew up in a household where my family had quiet time with God and His word. I grew up thinking that it was just a Sunday read. It’s just now that I have the desire to read my Bible on my own. And I’m one of these people that feel like it’s a daunting task to just sit down and try to understand. So I just recently started using the First 5 daily devotional app and literally take the first 5 minutes of my day to read and learn from God’s word. It makes it less daunting and it gives you the direction you need instead of going into it blindly.

    I have been a Christian for a while now. And I have yet to read the Bible and all the years through. Is my goal for this year to read my Bible through. I have many friends that have read the Bible from cover to cover. each one of them said don't ask me how long it took me to read it through. although a year sounds pretty good I bet it probably take me longer. So many good points there. I absolutely right that someone says the Bible don't relate to today they haven't read it the same sin is going around it's the vicious circle from the beginning of time to the end of time. Thank you so much for your videos.

    I have several Bibles and I love all of them. I read not only one but a couple of them a day. I just ordered a new KJV large print version of the Life Application Study Bible. I love comparing the way things are written in different Bibles. I understand the KJV because I grew up on it. When the pastor or someone else in Bible study at church uses another version of the Bible, I always go to the KJV to see what the scripture means. That's the original so to me it's the best. I love journaling the scriptures because I get fuller meaning from the scriptures. It's a wonderful thing! Got to look into the Bible Project! Having heard the stories all of my life and being able to read them over and over is a wonderful thing. The stories are so great. Once you start you won't be able to start!

    I listen to the audio bible on my phone at work. When I’m feeding my resident, I put on the audio bible and we both listen to it. Even my Muslim residents. I pray they come to Jesus. I work a lot because I’m a nursing aide and we are in need of help so I put in my Bluetooth and listen to the audio bible. It’s awesome.

    It think the top reason I don't sometimes is because I would be coming off of a stressful day and my eyes are tired and I just want to do something mindless because reading the bible means my brain needs to be on. So sometimes I'll just talk to Him because I'm that tired. That is what I struggle with. This doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes. I love the bluntness of this video!

    Another good place to start is to read the proverbs or psalms. They are short little nuggets of great wisdom. That's where I started reading since I already knew the gospel on a basic level since childhood.

    One thing that has been life changing to help me read the Bible daily is buying the “Once a day bible for women”. Every day there is a reading from the Old Testament, one from the New Testament, and either a proverb or psalm. It breaks it down into a perfect amount of reading per day, allowing me to have 20 minutes of bible study everyday.
