Men have read a Proverbs chapter a day for generations because the book is practical. It covers work, money, anger, friendships, marriage and self-control. This calendar does the remembering for you: on the 1st you read Proverbs 1, and on the 15th you read Proverbs 15.

Each event gives the chapter, a short plain-English note on what it says (paraphrased, so check it against your own Bible) and one small challenge for the day. Proverbs 31 shows up in months that have a 31st.

Questions

Which Bible translation does it use?

None. The notes are short paraphrases with verse references, so you can read the chapter in any translation you like.

What happens in months with 30 or fewer days?

Those months skip the missing chapters. Proverbs 31 appears in January, March, May, July, August, October and December, and Proverbs 29–31 appear whenever the month has those dates.

Is this the same as the FORGED app?

No. The calendar is a free standalone reading reminder. FORGED is a separate 90-day plan for men, with a passage explained in plain English, a daily challenge and prayer time.

Is this calendar free?

Yes. It costs nothing, needs no account and shows no ads. You can unsubscribe at any time.

How do I remove it from my iPhone?
