A local Christian couldn’t keep quiet after proudly reporting 100% consistency in reading the Bible daily in 2025. The 22-year-old disciplined and mature Christian noted that his plan to read the entire Bible in one year was already a success, having consistently devoured scripture for the first three days of January, registering a perfect success rate. This, he declared, was a major indication of his commitment to the gospel and high level of spiritual maturity.
“I have already covered two chapters in Genesis and one chapter in John using a complicated Bible reading plan I found on the YouVersion Bible app. I aim to make it past the Book of Numbers by mid-October,” said the enthusiastic and spirit-filled Christian.

Calling on other struggling believers to embrace spiritual disciplines and shun worldly pleasures, he pointed out that many people failed to follow through with their reading commitments, with most not making it past Deuteronomy last year. Fortunately, he did not have a Bible reading plan last year, but he claimed that based on current records, he would have also registered a 100% success rate.
“It is not easy. Pastors struggle with it. Elders struggle with it. People on the worship team can barely read the Bible for one day a month. But I am here to prove to all those people it is doable because I have done it. I also warn those who start a Bible reading plan and abandon it by January 2nd: no one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”
We plan to check in with him at the end of January to see his progress but we foresee him not picking up our call.
