Read the New Testament with Purpose
NT260 Discipleship Journal
More than a journal. NT260 is a guided journey through all 260 chapters of the New Testament—helping you read, understand, reflect on, and apply God’s Word one chapter at a time.
Build a sustainable rhythm of Bible reading, prayer, reflection, and obedience while journeying from Matthew to Revelation.
Designed for: personal Bible study, new believers, growing Christians, couples, families, small groups, Sunday School classes, ministry leaders, churches, and one-on-one discipleship.
You Want to Read the Bible
Why Do So Many Christians Struggle to Read the Bible Consistently?
Many Christians genuinely want to know God’s Word better. But good intentions often run into familiar obstacles.
Starting and stopping
You begin a Bible reading plan with good intentions but struggle to maintain momentum.
Feeling overwhelmed
Some passages are difficult, unfamiliar, or hard to connect with the larger story.
Not knowing what to do next
You read the chapter but are unsure how it should shape your beliefs, attitudes, or actions.
Reading without retaining
You finish the passage but later struggle to remember what you read or what God taught you.
NT260 was created to help.
More Than Completing a Reading Plan
Don’t Just Read Through the New Testament. Let the New Testament Shape Your Life.
Rather than rushing through Scripture simply to check off another chapter, NT260 helps you slow down, pay attention, ask meaningful questions, respond in prayer, and take faithful steps of obedience.
A Guided Journey
What Is NT260?
NT260 guides you through every chapter of the New Testament while giving you a simple framework for engaging Scripture personally and intentionally.
Read
Read the assigned chapter of Scripture slowly and attentively.
Reflect
Use P.E.T.S. to notice promises, examples, teaching, truth, sin, and practical application.
Respond
Consider what God is revealing and how He is calling you to respond in faith and obedience.
Remember
Capture meaningful verses, prayers, insights, and lessons you want to carry forward.
Imagine the Difference
Imagine Where 260 Chapters Could Take You
Imagine opening Scripture with greater confidence because Bible reading has become part of your normal rhythm.
Imagine seeing how the Gospels, Acts, the letters, and Revelation fit together as one New Testament story.
Imagine recognizing biblical truth more quickly and becoming less dependent on someone else to tell you what a passage means.
Imagine becoming more comfortable talking about Scripture with your spouse, children, friends, or small group.
Imagine looking back through pages filled with prayers, convictions, questions, answers, and reminders of God’s faithfulness.
Imagine reaching Revelation 22 knowing you have personally read and reflected on every chapter of the New Testament.
That is the journey NT260 was created to help you take.
A Repeatable Daily Rhythm
Pray. Read. Ask. Pray.
You don’t need a complicated Bible study system. NT260 gives you a simple rhythm you can use throughout this journal—and continue using long after you finish it.
Pray
Ask God to open your eyes to His truth and help you approach His Word with humility.
Read
Read the selected Scripture carefully, reread when needed, and record questions that arise.
Ask
Use P.E.T.S. as a compass for discovering biblical truth and considering how it applies to your life.
Pray
Finish by turning what you discovered into worship, repentance, thanksgiving, intercession, and obedience.
The opening pages of NT260 walk you through this method so you can use the same simple process throughout the entire New Testament.
The Heart of the Journal
P.E.T.S. Helps You Ask Better Questions
After reading the passage, work through the P.E.T.S. prompts as a simple compass for reflection. Instead of telling you what you should discover, these questions train you to look carefully at Scripture for yourself.
P — Promise & Praise
Is there a promise to claim? A reason to praise God? A prayer to pray?
E — Example
Is there someone’s example to follow or avoid as you walk with God?
T — Teaching & Truth
What does this passage teach you to believe, obey, or explore more deeply?
S — Sin & Scripture
Is there a sin to confess and turn from? Is there Scripture you want to memorize?

More Than a Reading Plan
Why NT260 Is Different
Not Just Checking Boxes
The goal is not simply to say you finished 260 chapters. NT260 encourages you to engage Scripture intentionally and respond faithfully.
Scripture Comes First
NT260 is not a devotional that tells you what to think before you read. You begin with God’s Word and use the journal to help you listen carefully.
Study Help When You Need It
QR-linked resources are available when you encounter a difficult passage or simply want to dig deeper.
Built for Real Life
Five readings per week leave room for busy schedules, catching up, deeper study, group discussion, and Sabbath rhythms.
Built for Growth
Reading, reflection, prayer, Scripture memory, discussion, and obedience work together to cultivate lasting spiritual habits.
Built to Multiply
The same journal you use personally can become a tool for helping someone else learn to read, understand, and obey Scripture.
One Journal. Many Ways to Use It.
