How To Read The Bible In 30 Days 

A Behold Peace Bible Study

I’m so excited to be starting this new bible study with you! This Bible study / reading challenge is called “Read the Bible in 30 Days”!!! I am so excited to start reading God’s word in this challenge!

Now…you may be wondering, how do you read the Bible in 30 days? 

I’m excited to share with you today just how to do this! 

How to Read The Bible in 30 Days

There are 1,189 chapters in the Bible. Divide that into 30 days and you will have 40 chapters to read per day. 

You can also think of this as…studies say that it takes roughly about 75 hours to read the Bible from start to finish. If you divide that into 30 days then you will have about 2 hours and 30 minutes of reading per day. 

Put into these bite sized pieces it doesn’t sound too hard to do this challenge. That is what I’m hoping to do and working on accomplishing for these next 30 days.
