Bible reading plan cards: an index card system in two sizes
A small card box that holds your reading progress, your notes and your prayers, one card at a time.
Overview
These Bible reading plan cards turn your quiet time into a tidy index card system, cut to true 3x5 and 4x6 sizes so checklists, study notes and prayers share one small box. The set has 33 undated pages: a chapter checklist for each of the 66 books, eight card designs offered in both sizes with crop marks, lined and dotted backs, and four box dividers. It comes as US Letter and A4 PDF files, ready to download instantly.
Whether you go in order, follow the timeline or move between books, you will always know where you stopped.
Why Bible reading plan cards help you keep going
On the checklist cards, each of the 1,189 chapters has its own little numbered box, so your progress is easy to see. One card helps you decide your pace, your reading spot and time, and who reads with you. The daily card holds the passage, one key verse, what the text says, what it means to you and a short prayer.
Ready to dig a little deeper? An overview card for whole books and a card for studying a theme are included. Learn one verse each week on the memory card, and keep requests and answers on the prayer card. With no dates printed, you can start on any day, reprint only what you use, and carry on easily after a missed week.
Who these scripture cards suit
- Anyone setting out to read all of Scripture who loves checking off each completed chapter
- Index card fans who prefer a little box of notes over a heavy notebook for their devotions
- Readers beginning with a single Gospel, Psalms or the New Testament before tackling everything
- Friends reading side by side who want an easy way to stay in step and encourage each other
Card sizes and design
- Minimalist white cards with gentle blush pink touches that use little ink

- No dates, so you can begin in any week of the year
- The checklists use the 66 books of most Protestant Bibles and show only names and chapter numbers, so they suit every translation

Questions
Questions about the bible reading plan cards

Yes. All 66 books of most Protestant Bibles are there, and every one of the 1,189 chapters has its own numbered box.
Are the cards dated?
No. You can start whenever you like and print just the cards you need again and again.
Will the lined backs match the fronts?
Yes, as long as you print two-sided and flip on the long edge.
