The Well Read Bible Project
A sacred year of slowing down with Scripture.
This isn’t a race through the Bible.
It’s a pilgrimage — step by step, story by story — to see the heart of God more clearly and live it more deeply.
Beginning in January 2026, we’ll journey through key books of the Bible that reveal the rhythm of Christian life: wisdom, worship, and the gospel lived out in real time. You’ll learn to read both head and heart—understanding the Word and letting it transform you.
How It Works
Each week you’ll receive an email that guides you through one focused reading.
Inside you’ll find:
-
A weekly Scripture focus — a small portion to read slowly
-
Short devotional reflection — drawing out truth and application
-
The Margins Method™ markings — tools to help you engage deeply
-
Head & Heart prompts — to pray, journal, or simply sit with God
-
Optional 10–15 minute video teaching — for those who want to go deeper
​
You are also invited into our private women's Facebook group, where women around the world gather to share what they’re discovering, ask questions, and walk this pilgrimage together.
A Year Ordered by Grace
God is a God of order—and this journey reflects that.
The Well Read Bible, hosted by Margins Ministries, follows a gentle guide that helps us move through Scripture with rhythm and purpose.
We’ll follow a clear path, but leave room for the Holy Spirit to speak, surprise, and lead as we go.
This isn’t about rushing through the Bible.
It’s about slowing down—seeing, feeling, and living the gospel as it unfolds.
In 2026, we’ll walk through twelve anchor books that help us understand what it means to live as followers of Jesus.
Each season carries a theme that mirrors the rhythm of the gospel in our own lives.
​
The Rhythm of the Year
Winter | Formation | Jan–Mar
📖 Genesis, Proverbs, Psalms
Who God is—and who we’re meant to be.
Learning to see Him rightly and align our lives with His design.
Spring | Redemption | Apr–Jun
📖 Exodus, Isaiah, Matthew
God rescues, restores, and rewrites our story.
From slavery to sonship—the slow freedom of grace.
Summer | Kingdom | Jul–Sep
📖 John, Acts, Romans
What life looks like when Christ reigns within.
Living as citizens of heaven while walking dusty roads.
Autumn | Presence | Oct–Dec
📖 Ephesians, James, 1 John
The gospel embodied in everyday love.
Maturity—when knowing becomes living.
​
Each week you’ll receive thoughtful readings, creative reflections, and guided study tools that blend structure with freedom.
We’ll explore context, story, and spiritual practice—through Scripture, prayer, and creative expression.
​
You don’t need to keep pace with anyone else.
Just bring your Bible, an open heart, and a little space in your week to meet with God.
​
✨ Depth over distance. Wisdom over speed. The Word made life. ✨
Winter Begins January 1, 2026

Why It’s Different
We’re learning to dwell with God in His Word—patiently, prayerfully, one passage at a time.
All translations are welcome.
All questions are welcome.
All hearts are welcome.
The goal isn’t to finish the Bible. It’s to let the Bible finish its work in us.
