More information on the man that created the plan we are following below:

Robert Murray M’Cheyne was a minister in Scotland in the mid 1800’s. He created one of the most popular Bible reading plans ever. It takes readers through the OT once and the NT twice over a year.

M’Cheyne offered four warnings about the misuse of plans like his:

1. Formality- reading the Bible for the sake of duty rather than reading the Bible for the Love of God.
2. Self-Righteousness. We read to make ourselves feel righteous before God. M’Cheyne describes this type of reading as complacent and unaffected by the work of God.
3. Careless Reading- Reading the Word of God without trembling in His presence
4. A yoke too heavy to bear- Beginning the year reading with joy but being consumed by the burden of reading. Legalism consumes and destroys.

M’Cheyne also listed 5 rewards of dedicated Bible reading plans:

1. Reading the whole counsel of God’s Word
2. No time wasted in selecting passages to read
3. Family devotions
4. The Pastor knows where the congregation is reading
5. Christian unity strengthened when reading together.
