Welcome to Gaia! ::

I've always found it hard to read the Bible from cover to cover and I've been a Christian for most of my life. Some people like to use those study bibles that will help you get through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation in one year. I'm not sure how effective they are because I personally don't like them.

Some books I like to read in the Bible are the New Testament as a whole and Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Isaiah, Daniel---from the Old Testament.

I say you start at matthew/Genesis. Matthew because it's filled with much rich truth that Jesus teaches and it the new testament. And Genesis because it's the beggining and alot of important people are in it that the new testament relates to such as Abraham but the new testament talks about people throught the whole old testament, it's just I guess Genesis is a good place to start aside from Matthew. and if you ever have trouble reading it I say you go to http://www.gty.org/ and type down the verse(s) where you see search or you can also try this http://www.gty.org/Resources/Bible+Book+Studies it's all the books he's done a teaching on and it's one sermon for one verse or verses because some verses go together smile I mean it helps and he gives you a good view of things and sometimes it will just make you go WOAH!

Me personally I started a Genesis but you can also start at Mathew that would help too Good luck.
