How this plan works
- Three weeks. John has 21 chapters, so three weeks is one chapter a day, from “In the beginning was the Word” to the breakfast by the sea.
- Slower if you like. Set an end date 40 days out and the 879 verses spread to about 22 a day, split inside chapters where a chapter is long.
- Your ticks stay here. Ticks are kept in this browser. The copied link holds your choices, so it opens the same plan on another device; the ticks don't travel with it.
