    If you are an absolute beginner, I'd recommend reading Genesis, and then the Gospel of Mark, then Colossians and Titus. Then read Matthew, John, Luke and then Acts and following with the rest of the New Testament. Use the KJV, NKJV, NASB95, ESV or CSB for good literal study. Use the NLT for easy reading and comprehension. God Bless!

      Hey Ryan. Sorry I missed this post a couple weeks ago. I always start by THANKING God for his Word. Then I INVITE him to be present (and that I might sense his presence). Then I pray for FOCUS. I also think it's totally fine to pause in the middle of your reading and sit, talk, listen, and pray. Enjoy!

    I personally would recommend people to read through the gospels with a chronological reading plan and then read acts. Each gospel fleshes out the other gospels.

      @keithferrin  2 роки тому +2

      That can be a great way also. I love mixing it up! Since each gospel has a different "feel" to it, I just prefer (most of the time) to read an entire gospel at once. Thanks for sharing!
