Classic Bible Chapters

Back in the early 1960's, a lad in his early teens was riding in a car with A. W. Sheehy, one of the travelling ministers of the church. The teen asked the minister what would be some good Bible passages to read. As he drove along, the minister began listing some chapters off the top of his head. The teen grabbed a piece of paper and wrote down the list. Here it is:

Genesis 1
Exodus 20
Deuteronomy 6
Psalms 1, 23, 27, 46, 91, 103, 121
Isaiah 35, 40, 53, 55
Micah 6
Matthew 5, 6, 7, 25
Mark 15
Luke 2, 10, 15, 24
John 1, 3, 14, 15, 17
Acts 2
Romans 8, 12
1 Corinthians 13, 15
Ephesians 6
Philippians 4
Hebrews 11
James 1
1 John 3
Revelation 21

The teenager is now of the the travelling ministers of the church and the webmaster of this site. It is still a pretty good chapter list for someone who wants to get started reading the Bible.
