Ok the year is nearing its end and many Christian folks tend to make a resolution to read their Bibles .
So I want to ask folks that read regularly to please share your tips to keep in the scriptures. I would also like to encourage those that don’t pleas read their Bibles.
Now if y’all that can’t seem to get in to reading the Bible but want to. Ask questions I am sure many here will love to help .
Blessings

If you don't like reading through the Bible, perhaps listening through it would be easier? Bible Gateway has various audio Bibles in various translations that are free to listen to online here, and they offer an audio Bible app ~here~ as well for iPhones/iPads/Android that allows the user to listen for a set length of time each day. So, for instance, if you were willing to commit to listening to the Bible for an hour each day, you could listen through the entire NIV Dramatized OT and NT in just 76 days.

Read while you have coffee in the morning, a little during lunch and 30 to 45 minutes before bed....Old in the morning, new at lunch and night.....that is what I do....plus I had to study through it twice a year each year in seminary....

Tip. Concentrate on one book. Proverbs you can read a chapter each day for a month because there is 31 chapters.

Since I first was convinced by God of Jesus Christ, Yeshua, my position on folks who can but do not read the Word is simple, it is like saying "I know you are talking to me, Father, but right now I cannot listen to you." There are peopl in extenuating conditions who trully cannot read the Word, to them, hear the Word from a trusted source...……….
