One of the best ways to build a closer relationship with our Creator is to spend time learning about Him - and His great love for us - in the words of Scripture. Reading them in chronological order has the added benefits of clearly presenting the promises and the covenants forming our relationship with the Eternal, the progression of prophecies and their fulfillments, and the consequences of our actions, both individually and collectively, as part of His people. The rewards of knowing and understanding Scripture include a stronger relationship with our Creator, a better ability to discern good from evil, and, as a result, having peace in life.

A do-it-yourself 'journal' for reading each of the Bible's chapters chronologically; there must be a thoughtful justification for arranging the chronology of the chapters in this way (and ,in fact, the placement seems quite reasonable), but the book is spare enough not to include it. I find the author's NT arrangement less straightforward than the OT choices.
