Among Protestant churchgoers only a third spend time reading the Bible every day according to the 2019 ‘Discipleship Pathway Assessment’ study.

The study identifies Bible engagement as one of eight signposts that consistently show up in the lives of growing Christians. Bible reading was seen to be the most predictive of spiritual maturity.

Of those who attend a Protestant church, 32% said they read the Bible every day. 27% that they read it a few times a week. 12% only read it once a week. 12% admit they rarely or never read the Bible.
