3 Effective Ways to Study Your Bible
​This year, I am studying God’s Word with a fresh, new approach. I'm reading in chronological order of book authorship.

It's easy using this Bible Reading Itinerary.

This is different from reading the Bible in chronological order. That's a great way to read it as well.

​I am also listening to the Bible with an audio version while I read.

​I’m an audible learner, so this approach has been a tremendous help when it comes to comprehending what I read.

Let's link up, and then join me over at ​Money Wise Steward, where we will discover 3 effective ways to study your Bible.

​A Tool for Chronological Order of Book Authorship Bible Reading

If you would like to read through God's Word in chronological order of book authorship, do what I am doing. I’m using this Bible Reading Itinerary. It begins with the book of Job. Did you know that Genesis is not the first book written in the Bible?

This lovely, 12-month, self-guided (or group-guided) Bible reading itinerary gently leads the reader on a journey through the Bible in chronological order of book authorship. If you haven't read God’s Word in this order, you're in for a real treat! The itinerary gives readers a unique perspective of the Bible. Make your plans to read through God’s Word by downloading this resource today! The itinerary is great for new believers and for those established in the faith as well.

Patsy, I love the audio Bible. I sometimes hear things I didn't see, especially in longer narratives.

It's been life-changing, Debbie!!! I'm not sure why I never thought of this before.

Studying the Bible chronologically by author is always something I've wanted to do. A friend of mine actually has a Bible that is arranged in just that manner.

My learning style is definitely not through "hearing" which is frustrating because it would be wonderful to listen to the Bible in the car for instance.

I currently use the Give Me Jesus Bible Journal and my Kay Arthur Inductive Bible which has been a game changer for me for delving deeper in to the Word.

Thanks for sharing these effective ways to study your Bible.

I have a chronological order of events Bible, Karen. I liked it in some respects because you get to read about David's life in conjunction with the Psalms he wrote, and things like that. But in other ways, I found it cumbersome as it bounced around from book to book and chapter to chapter so very much. I've never seen a Bible in chronological order of book authorship though. I'll have to check that out! I'll need to checkout the Kay Arthur Inductive Bible as well. Thanks for the heads up on these resources! I like diving deep!

It's so enlightening to read chronologically, and also, I find that when i listen to Scripture, I catch things I missed in simply reading.

I have never thought of listening to the Bible while I read it. I am also an audible learner. I will definitely have to look into that.
