Research shows that most people professing faith in Jesus have never completely read the Bible. Many people start reading the Bible but then become overwhelmed by the number of chapters (1,189) and verses (31,102).
We’re always looking for meaningful ways to help you spend time with God daily. Whether you’re a Croydon SDA Church member or visitor, we’ve created a monthly Bible Reading Plan to help get you started (including some tips below). It is hoped that they will help encourage at least weekly (if not daily) reading of God’s word.

Tips on Reading the Bible
- Start reading the Bible today - there is no better time, and there's no reason to wait.
- Set aside a specific time each day. Mornings are great, but feel free to use any time that works consistently for you.
- Read the Bible for the sake of learning, not simply to accomplish your next reading. Say a short prayer to God before you begin, asking the Holy Spirit to give you wisdom and understanding, then be refreshed by the words you read!
Other ways to study the Bible
In addition to our Bible Study Plan, we also have other ways to study the Bible.
These Bible readings will also form the basis of a monthly Bible Quiz.
