How do I start reading the Bible as a new believer?

Official answer 2026-07-09

Welcome to God's family! A few practical tips: 1) Start with the Gospel of John to meet Jesus, then Mark and Acts, before moving to Genesis, Psalms and Proverbs. 2) Pick a fixed time each day — even one chapter is enough; consistency matters more than speed. 3) Pray briefly before you read, and afterwards ask: what does this passage show me about God, and how does it speak to my life today? 4) Use the reading plans in the free BiblePro Bible app — it walks you through a daily portion and lets you highlight verses and take notes. 5) Join a church or small group where you can read together and ask questions.
