Read Through the Bible in Two Years – 2026 update!

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Today I’m starting the second year of the two-year Bible plan. If you’d like to begin with Day 1 of Year 1, you should begin with John 1.

—

For several years, I did a “Read Through the Bible in One Year” plan. I think it’s important to read the entire Bible, every word of it, and I’m glad that I’ve done that, but, I’ve found that the whole Bible in one year is a lot to absorb. It doesn’t give me much time to reflect and meditate on what I’ve read, so I decided I wanted to do a “Read Through the Bible in Two Years” plan. Simple enough, right? Wrong.

So, I made my own and I’d love to have you join me.

The plan is set up to read through each book of the Bible from beginning to end, alternating between Old Testament and New Testament books. I tried to keep the Old Testament books in chronological order. For example, Job is read after Genesis and before Exodus. I also intentionally placed New Testament books with related Old Testament books to help us see the connections in the text. For example, Hebrews is read between Leviticus and Numbers. I love to read one chapter of Luke every day from December 1-24, so each year ends with reading the book of Luke.

You’ll also notice that the Bible reading plan is set up week by week rather than day by day. One week you will devote every day to the four chapters of Philippians. In this weekly format, you could read the whole book on the first day of the week, then reread little parts the other six days … or you could read half of each chapter every day. You decide. Another week you’re assigned to read fourteen chapters of Leviticus – you might read several chapters one day and just one chapter another. Having a week by week format allows you this flexibility, but still keeps you on target.

Beware of False Prophets who Dishearten the Righteous. Ezekiel 12-13. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 12-13

According to Ezekiel 13:22 ESV, false prophets not only encouraged the wicked such that they didn’t turn from evil to be saved, but they also “disheartened the righteous falsely.”

Jesus said, “In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33b ESV)

The Apostle Peter wrote, “Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.” (1 Peter 4:12-14 ESV)

One of the biggest takeaways I had from watching the movie and reading the book “The Insanity of God” was that we in the USA can encourage our persecuted family around the globe by using the freedom we have to share the good news. Let’s do that!

Please join me in praying for our persecuted brothers and sisters on the other side of the globe, and let’s get busy making disciples of Jesus!

God Marks Those who are His. Ezekiel 8-11. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 8-11

And the LORD said to him, “Pass through the city, through Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations that are committed in it.”

And to the others he said in my hearing, “Pass through the city after him, and strike. Your eye shall not spare, and you shall show no pity. Kill old men outright, young men and maidens, little children and women, but touch no one on whom is the mark. And begin at my sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the house.

Ezekiel 9:4-6 ESV

Does your heart break for the sin that fills our nation?

Do you grieve for the wicked who are perishing all around you?

Have you been marked by the Lord and sealed with His Spirit?

And You Shall Know That I am the LORD. Ezekiel 6-7. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 6-7

Seven times in 41 verses, the Lord says either “you” or “they” “shall know that I am the LORD.” These words are spoken not in the midst of blessing, but in the midst of judgment, in the sending of pestilence and famine and sword.

Pray for our nation. Pray for your neighbors. Pray for your family. Pray for yourself.

“Their silver and gold are not able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord” (Ezekiel 7:19b) and neither can ours.

Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

Hebrews 3:12-13 ESV

Do you have a Submissive Spirit … Or a Rebellious One? Ezekiel 1-5. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Ezekiel 1-5

And you shall speak my words to them, whether they hear or refuse to hear, for they are a rebellious house. “But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Be not rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you.”

Ezekiel 2:7-8 ESV

Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you are more turbulent than the nations that are all around you, and have not walked in my statutes or obeyed my rules, and have not even acted according to the rules of the nations that are all around you, therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I, even I, am against you. And I will execute judgments in your midst in the sight of the nations.

The Grace of God has Appeared… What Now? Titus. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 46, Titus 1-3

For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works. Declare these things; exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another.

But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are excellent and profitable for people.

Titus 2:11-3:8

Hard Words for Older Women – and Younger Women, too. Titus. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 44, Titus 1-3

Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.

Do your Church Leaders Teach Sound Doctrine and Rebuke Those who Contradict It? Titus. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 43, Titus

Our church recently ordained a new elder and retired one to “emeritus” status after serving faithfully since our church was planted, 37 years ago!

I am so thankful for a team of elders who have been chosen in obedience to Titus 1:7-9,

For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.

MAKING A RESPECTFUL APPEAL. Philemon. 2026

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 40-41, Philemon

Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required, yet for love’s sake I prefer to appeal to you—I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus— I appeal to you for my child, Onesimus, whose father I became in my imprisonment.

PERFECT JESUS … MESSED UP ME. Bonus Day: Colossians 1. 2026

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 39

Colossians 1:15-22 ESV —

“[Jesus] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.

And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.

And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him,”

Thank you, Lord!
