"Absolutely excellent. Uplifting, inspiring, challenging...there is no substitute for God's wisdom."
How I did it: I tried to do daily readings with the "Today's Light Bible," a specialized study Bible, but working on it every day that way, and in such small chunks, didn't work well for me. I had trouble concentrating on the written word for a while due to psychological issues (depression and anxiety, which are now mostly in remission but were very severe for a long time) so I started listening to a recorded version instead and that helped a lot. Nevertheless I needed the study Bible. There were times when I couldn't easily understand or apply what I was reading and that study Bible really helped.
Lessons & tips: Let your pace fluctuate - there will likely be days where you can listen or read for hours and only want more, and others where reading one chapter seems almost impossible. Just don't give up and keep seeking the wisdom and love of God.
