Christianity: Bible study

Hi guys, how often do you study the Bible? Has anyone completedly studied the whole Bible here? if yes, how did you go about it? Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

I read the Bible as a contemporary biblical scholar would do.

I try to study the Bible everyday, but I must admit I’m not doing too well at the moment due to different things. I’ve never done the entire Bible straight through but I know all of the Old Testament ‘stories’ and most of the New Testament. It’s the minor prophets I’ve not really done :redface:

(Jeremiah,Ezekiel,Hosea etc.) I would love to do it and maybe I’ll start this summer. Most study Bibles have a Bible in a year plan in the back, and they’re good as they come with notes. The Bible app is also really good. :smile:

The year plan used to be superb. can't you start reading afresh all over again?

I read it every evening before I go to sleep. atm I'm just trying to read it cover to cover multiple times before I do full on studying because I don't want to be taking things out of context.

The "Bible in One Year" plan by Nicky Gumbel from Holy Trinity Brompton is very good. You read a Psalm, passage from the New Testament and a passage from the Old Testament every day. You can read the passages yourself or listen to David Suchet ( Poirot) reading them. Nicky Gumbel does a brilliant commentary on each passage. I've found it to be very helpful. It's free to download too!
