Bible Reading Plan Generator

Pick what to read and how fast. Get a day-by-day plan you can check off on your phone, print for the fridge, or copy into your notes.

    How the plan is built

    The generator spreads the chapters of your chosen track evenly across the days you pick, keeping books in order and never splitting a chapter. Each day lists exactly what to read, and every reading links to BibleGateway so you can read on your phone.

    Picking a pace you'll keep

    A good rule: choose the plan you can still do on your worst day. If the baby is up at night and you have ten minutes, a Gospel chapter is doable. Four chapters of Numbers may not be. There's no prize for speed — "Blessed is the one … whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night" (Psalm 1:1–2, NIV). Meditating, not sprinting.

    The "For moms" track

    This curated track walks through the passages Christian mothers return to most: Psalms of trust (23, 27, 46, 91, 121, 139), the Sermon on the Mount, Ruth and Hannah's story in 1 Samuel 1–2, Philippians, 1 Peter, and Jesus' promises in John 14–17. It's roughly 60 chapters — ideal for a 30- or 60-day plan.

    Questions moms ask

    Which reading plan should a busy mom start with?
    If you've never finished a plan before, start with the Gospels in 30 days (about one chapter a day) or Psalms & Proverbs in 60 days. Finishing something small builds the habit; you can always generate a longer plan afterward.
    How long does it take to read the whole Bible?
    The Bible has 1,189 chapters. At one year that's about 3–4 chapters a day (roughly 12–15 minutes). At 90 days it's 13 chapters a day, which is a serious commitment — most moms do better at 180 or 365 days.
    What if I miss a day?
    Don't double up to 'catch up' — that's how plans die. Just read today's portion. The plan is a servant, not a master. Your progress is saved in this browser, so pick up where you left off.
    Where is my progress stored?
    Only in your browser's local storage on this device. Nothing is uploaded. If you clear your browser data or switch devices, use Print or Copy to keep a copy of the plan.
