New Testament Reading Plan

For our Bible reading plan we’re building on the work done by Project 3:45, so named because it takes about 3 minutes and 45 seconds to read one chapter of the Bible every day! The plan is designed with five reading days per week and two "catchup days". 

 

Experiencing problems with the online or mobile version of Project 3:45?  Click here for an update.


There are four primary ways to participate in our Bible reading plan:

 

Click to view and print a bookmark you can use as a guide for your daily reading. Reading plan bookmarks are also available in the lobby brochure racks and at the Guest Services desk. Put it in your Bible or someplace you will see it and follow-along. A suggestion of how you might approach reading Scripture each day is included on the back.

 
 
 
 

Sign-up for our reading plan online and read it on your phone, tablet, or computer.  In addition to having it emailed to you each day. The reading plan is organized through a website called YouVersion. We’d encourage you to go to the site prior to the 16th and create an account and then log-in on the 16th to start the Project 345 plan.
     Step 1Click to go to the reading plan on the YouVersion website
     ♦ Step 2 – Click on “Sign-Up” at the top of the page on the right side
     ♦ Step 3 – Create an account (you can log-in with your Facebook account); you’ll receive a

Follow @BrentwoodUMC on twitter and we’ll tweet the scripture reading for the day along with a link to read it online. Join the conversation about what you’re learning by using the hashtag #bumc345  - you might want to create a YouVersion as well just to track your progress, it’s up to you!

Repeat – every day for a year. Remember, it will only take 3:45 a day.
