The Long Way Through Scripture
A slow, week-by-week walk through the Bible
This is a year-long journey through Scripture, taken without rush or pressure. One week at a time. One passage at a time. No race to finish - just a commitment to stay.
The Long Way Through Scripture is a weekly Bible study podcast designed to support real life. Each week includes a short audio episode that helps orient you to the reading, where we are in Scripture, what kind of ground we're walking on, and one simple reflection to carry with you as you read.
​
Each week follows a single reading from Scripture, designed to be read slowly and thoughtfully. The reading happens between episodes, at whatever pace fits your life. Some weeks you may read everything. Other weeks you may read slowly, read only part of the passage, or pause and return later.
This is a companionship, not performance.
Below is the full reading plan for The Long Way Through Scripture.
You're welcome to look ahead or simply take it one week at a time.
Some weeks include selected rather than the entire book. These are specific sections that reflect the historical moment being read and are meant to be read as prayers or reflections alongside the story. They're offered as an invitation, not an extra requirement. You're welcome to read them slowly, read a few, or return to them later.
