Slow Gospel reading plan?
Want to sit in Matthew–John for months, not rush. Anyone got a pace + simple reflection questions?

Half a chapter. Copy one verse. Pray it back. Share one insight with a friend weekly. Slow reading grows deeper roots than rushing plans. John 15:7; Psalm 1:2 — delight and meditate day and night.

If you miss days, resume — Gospels aren't a streak app.

One month per Gospel is a sane pace for many. Don't let reading plans shame you.

End each session asking: Who can I love differently today because of this?

Keep a margin notebook. Writing slows skimming.

Questions I use: What does Jesus do/say? What do people get wrong? What do I need to obey?

Read the same story in two Gospels back-to-back occasionally — richness without rush.
