How the Gospels in 30 Days Plan Works

The Gospels in 30 Days plan divides 89 chapters of the New World Translation evenly across 30 days — averaging about 3 chapters per day. Each day you read the assigned portion and mark it complete in JW Study. The app tracks your streak, shows your overall progress, and helps you keep a consistent personal Bible reading routine.

Why Use a Structured Reading Plan?

Personal Bible reading is one of the spiritual routines Jehovah's organization encourages alongside meeting attendance, the ministry, and family worship. A structured plan like Gospels in 30 Days helps you stay consistent, read God's Word regularly, and strengthen your relationship with Jehovah. For deeper study, use this plan alongside JW Library and the research tools at wol.jw.org.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of This Plan

• Set a fixed time each day for Bible reading — before the morning routine or as part of family worship.
• Take notes on verses that stand out and research them in the Insight on the Scriptures volumes on wol.jw.org.
• Look up scriptures cross-referenced in the meeting workbook and weekly Watchtower study.
• Review each book's study guide on JW Study before starting that section of the plan.
