This plan guides you through the entire Catholic Bible (73 books) in one year, starting July 1, 2025, with daily readings from the Old Testament, New Testament, and Wisdom/Psalms. It aligns with the Catholic liturgical calendar, prioritizing readings that reflect the themes of Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and major feast days. Each day includes approximately 3-4 chapters, balancing narrative, wisdom, and epistolary texts, with deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, 1-2 Maccabees, additions to Esther and Daniel) integrated.

Guidelines

  • Daily Structure: Each day includes:
    • Old Testament (narrative, prophets, or deuterocanonical books)
    • Wisdom/Psalms (for prayer and reflection)
    • New Testament (Gospels, Acts, Epistles, or Revelation)
  • Liturgical Alignment: Readings are chosen to reflect the liturgical season or feast day (e.g., Isaiah during Advent, Passion narratives in Lent).
  • Pace: Approximately 15-20 minutes of reading per day.
  • Flexibility: Adjust as needed; combine shorter days or split longer ones.
  • Prayer: Begin with a prayer, such as the Come, Holy Spirit, to prepare your heart.

Notes

  • Liturgical Alignment: Readings are tailored to seasons (e.g., Isaiah for Advent, Passion narratives for Lent) and feast days (e.g., Luke 1:26-38 for Annunciation). Ordinary Time includes narrative and epistolary texts for continuity.
  • Deuterocanonical Books: Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, 1-2 Maccabees, and additions to Esther and Daniel are integrated, reflecting the Catholic canon.
  • Psalms and Wisdom: Psalms are spread across the year, with longer psalms (e.g., Psalm 119) split. Wisdom books complement historical or prophetic readings.
  • New Testament: Gospels are read multiple times to emphasize their centrality, with Acts and Epistles during Easter and Ordinary Time.
  • Reflection: Use a Catholic study Bible (e.g., New American Bible Revised Edition) for context, especially for deuterocanonical books or prophets.

May this plan deepen your faith through God’s Word in harmony with the Church’s liturgical life!
