Bible reading for 2014

Ever planning to read the whole Bible/ NT/ OT in 2014?
You may want some reminders, there are many choices here by various means:
  • RSS (subscribe to receive by RSS)
  • iCal (download an iCalendar file)
  • mobile (view a new reading each day on your mobile device)
  • print (download a PDF of the whole plan)
  • email (goes to your email a/c)
Personally, I use http://www.bibleplan.org/ (with different reading choices, a variety of Bible versions and languages, but only through email subscription). Of course, you can always set up a reading plan in YouVersion, Logos (or via biblia.com), or Bibleworks (but I easily forgot to go there regularly; a suggestion would be setting up a daily reminder from Google calendar with the link embedded).
