I've found it more useful to read the Bible in sections, rather than just reading it in order. Other people may have different thoughts. The Bible is also very different from any other book I have read. I suppose it depends on how we approach reading it. I know that I enjoy reading something in the Bible more than once because I often see something different, at a deeper level, than I saw when reading it previously.I understand the struggle. I've only come to the faith recently, but I've been trying to read the Bible straight through for... maybe 4 years now? Anyway, no matter how much I've tried, I always get stuck either at the law, specifically late Exodus and Leviticus, or I get stuck at the Chronicles. A few months ago, I started reading with a small group, and we were gliding through the worst, longest marathons of Exodus, but unfortunately, we've had conflicting schedules lately, so for want of getting too out-of-sync, I'm stuck at late Exodus.
I don't know what I'd do once I finish. I'm not one to read the same book twice, so I'd probably only read at church or for study purposes after a single complete pass-through.
