Dandelion Bible in a Year | Seekers & New Believers Reading Plan

One-Year Bible Reading Plan : Seekers Plan | 365 Days to Explore God, Jesus, the Gospel & Salvation

The Seekers 365-Day Bible Reading Plan is designed for those who are searching for God, exploring Christianity, or have not yet decided what they believe about Jesus.

Rather than reading the Bible straight through from beginning to end, this plan begins with the questions seekers often ask. Each day focuses on a short passage and one central truth. Starting with questions like Is there really a God? Where did the world come from? What is sin? Why do we need salvation?, the journey gradually explores God’s plan of redemption, who Jesus is, the cross and resurrection, the gospel, salvation, and the Bible’s hope for eternity.

One Short Passage. One Important Question. One Step at a Time.

Welcome to the Seekers 365-Day Bible Reading Plan.

This is the daily reading schedule for the Dandelion Bible in a Year | Seekers Plan. Here you can find the complete 365-day journey, including each day's main theme, daily topic, Scripture reading, and daily reading page.

You do not need any previous knowledge of the Bible, and you do not have to believe before you begin. This plan gives you room to read, ask questions, think, and explore what the Bible says about God, humanity, sin, Jesus, salvation, and eternity.

How to Use This Reading Plan

Read by Date or by Day

You can follow the calendar dates in the plan, or simply begin with Day 1 and continue at your own pace.

If you are not starting on January 1, that is completely fine. You can begin at any time.

There is no need to rush. Give yourself time to read, think, and explore.

Follow the Daily Topic

Each day focuses on one clear topic or question.

Over the year, the questions gradually unfold:

Is there really a God? Who is God? What went wrong with the world? What is sin? Why do we need salvation? Who is the Messiah? Who is Jesus? Why did He have to die on the cross? Did He really rise from the dead? What is the gospel? How can I be saved?

Read the Day's Scripture

Each day includes a short, carefully selected Bible passage.

The goal of the Seekers Plan is not to read as many chapters as possible in one year. Instead, the goal is to understand one passage and explore one important truth each day, while gradually seeing how the Bible's story of redemption fits together.

Visit the Daily Reading Page

Click the daily reading link to explore the passage in greater depth.

Each daily page includes Background & Context, The Story So Far, Today's Introduction, Questions to Consider, Scripture Reading, Verse of the Day, Life Reflection, Reflection & Small Step, Response Song, and Closing Prayer.

These resources are designed to help even someone opening the Bible for the first time understand the passage and think carefully about what it means.

What Does This Reading Plan Include?

Main Themes

Thirteen major themes guide the journey through the year:

→ 1. Is There Really a God? Knowing the Creator
→ 2. What Went Wrong with the World? Understanding Sin
→ 3. God Begins His Plan of Redemption
→ 4. What Is Salvation? Passover, the Law & Atonement
→ 5. Can We Fix the Problem Ourselves?
→ 6. The Prophets Say: A Savior Is Coming
→ 7. Who Is Jesus?
→ 8. What Did Jesus Teach?
→ 9. Why Did Jesus Have to Die on the Cross?
→ 10. Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?
→ 11. How Can I Be Saved?
→ 12. What Happens After I Believe?
→ 13. How Does the Story End? Eternal Hope

Daily Topic

Each day focuses on one central question or one important truth.

Even if you have never read the Bible before, you do not have to understand many complicated ideas at once. Over 365 days, each small step helps you develop a clearer picture of what Christianity actually teaches.

Scripture Reading

Each day includes a short Bible passage directly related to the day's topic.

The readings come from both the Old and New Testaments, allowing you to see what the Bible itself says about these questions, rather than simply reading someone else's explanation of Christianity.

Daily Reading Page

The daily reading page helps you understand the background, context, and central message of the passage.

It also gives you questions and small practical steps that encourage you to ask:

What does this passage actually say? What does it tell me about God? How does it help me understand Jesus and the gospel? Do I agree with what the Bible is saying? What questions do I still have?

Suggestions for Using This Plan

If You Are Exploring Christianity

You do not need to rush yourself into believing, and you do not need to pretend that you already understand everything.

Bring your real questions with you.

If you encounter something you do not understand, disagree with, or find difficult, write down your question and keep reading. Give the Bible time to develop its own message as the journey continues.

If This Is Your First Time Reading the Bible

Do not worry if you encounter unfamiliar names, places, sacrifices, laws, or other biblical ideas.

The daily Background & Context and The Story So Far sections will help you understand what is happening.

Focus first on the most important question or truth for that day. The bigger picture will gradually become clearer.

For Reading Partners & Small Groups

If you are walking alongside someone who is exploring Christianity, or leading a seeker or discovery group, you can follow this plan together.

You do not need to answer every question immediately. Read the passage together and begin with questions such as:

“What do you notice in this passage?”
“What makes you curious?”
“Is there anything here that you find difficult to understand or believe?”

Allow the conversation to grow naturally from the Bible itself.

For Churches & Outreach Ministries

This plan can also be used for one-to-one Bible reading, seeker groups, discovery Bible studies, evangelism, and church outreach or introductory faith programs.

Follow it daily, discuss the readings weekly, or select one of the 13 thematic sections for a focused study.

Start Today's Reading

Start Today

Choose Day 1 in the reading plan, or simply begin with today's date.

You do not need any previous Bible knowledge, and you do not have to wait until all your questions are answered. Bring your questions, curiosity, and doubts with you.

Read one short passage each day. Explore one important truth at a time. Step by step, see how the Bible addresses questions about God, life, sin, Jesus, salvation, and eternity.

Discover Christianity One Day at a Time

May this 365-day journey help you understand who the God of the Bible is, who Jesus is, why humanity needs salvation, and why the cross and resurrection are at the heart of the gospel.

You do not need to rush toward all the answers. Give yourself time to read, think, question, and explore.

And as you continue through the year, consider one question above all:

Who is Jesus—and what does He have to do with my life?
