Publisher's Review: The Calendar gives four portions (usually four chapters) for each day of the year: two for family worship, morning and evening, and two for private reading, morning and evening. In this way, the entire Bible is read one and the New Testament and psalms twice in the course of a year. M'Cheyne's own recommendations for using the reading scheme were these:
- In family or group worship, the leader, for example the father, should read over the chapters in advance, noting a few prominent verses to comment or ask questions on.
- Sometimes the chapter for the family reading is more suitable for reading in private and vice versa. Where this is so, the other reading should be substituted.
- The conversation at family meal times should often relate to the passage read.
- Our private reading should be the first thing we do in the morning. God's voice should be the first we hear. We should mark tow or three verses which seem richest to us and pray over them.
- Above all, the Word of God should be a lamp to our feet and a light to our path - our guide in perplexity, our armor in trials, our food in times of weakness.
