Lent Bible Reading Plan

There are 46 days in lent. There are 16 chapters in Mark’s Gospel and 28 chapters in Acts. This means you could read all about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus plus the empowerment of the early Church through the arrival of the promised Holy Spirit. There are a couple of bonus readings to make up the full 46 days.

Each day contains a link that takes you to that chapter, so you don’t need a Bible to take part. Either follow at home with your Bible, or use these links that direct you to the New International Version (on BibleGateway). For an audio Bible, click the link, then the speaker icon.
