Some parts of the Bible are easier to move through than others.
A lot of people notice that about now. When you get to the part with a bunch of genealogies, names, and lists.
Details that can feel repetitive if you’re expecting constant action.
That’s usually where people start negotiating with themselves.
“Maybe I’ll skip ahead.”
“Maybe this part isn’t important.”
“Maybe I’ll just read the Psalms this week instead.”
Most people don’t quit things during the exciting parts. They quit during the ordinary parts. The repetitive parts. The sections that don’t immediately reward them.
That applies to more than Bible reading.
The habit matters more than whether this week feels especially interesting to you.
Remember that everything in the Bible is there for a reason.
So read Chronicles. Then read the next thing after Chronicles too.
That’s how you get through books. That’s also how you get through most worthwhile things.
