A family reading plan

55 short readings, one a day, through the seven chapters of the walk. Each one is a picture, a Bible passage and a question to talk about: about five minutes at breakfast or at bedtime.

Tap a day to open its picture. Tick the box when you have read it (your ticks stay in this browser only), or print the plan and tick it with a pen. A chapter can take a little more or less than a week; there is no rush. Learn the week’s memory verse along the way: they are all on the memory verse cards.
