2026–27 Bible Reading Challenge
- Help you actually succeed. This plan is practical, realistic, and guilt-free. Life happens. We get it.
- Get you inviting others. The feast isn't meant to be eaten alone. We want you reading with friends, family, and fellow believers.
- Missed a day or a whole week? Don't try to catch up. If you skipped breakfast and lunch, you don't need to eat them before dinner. Start with today's reading.
- Same page, many traditions. Our focus stays on the text itself. That frees us to encourage one another across differences and trust the Spirit with the rest. We're sharing a love of Scripture, not settling arguments.
- Nothing to buy. No subscriptions, no products, no fees. Invite your friends freely.
