Free Downloadable Bible Reading Plans for the New Year -- Happy New Year!
Newly added to this post are the Bible reading plans for children. You may wish to peruse it before handing it out to make sure there is nothing that doesn't line up with your doctrine in it. The Bible reading plans include a book of the Bible and a follow-up question for the reader. More difficult passages are left out. For instance, Numbers starts later in the book than the first chapter.
Bible reading plans for children
Bible Reading Plans from Ligonier Ministries
Note: I have a lot of agreement with my Reformed friends at Ligonier but we go our separate ways on eschatology (prophecy/the last days) and Israel (the Reformed believe the Church has replaced Israel while I believe that everlasting means everlasting and God never breaks His Word).
Bible Reading Plans that you can download from Ligonier include:
