Starting with Genesis in the Old Testament. As a Catholic, I never really read the Bible. So, here I go!

That’s a tough way to do it my dude. People tend to get bogged down in Exodus and Leviticus, and then just give up. I was raised Baptist, and was all set to be confirmed Catholic at the Easter Vigil until that was canceled.

I would get a good study Bible, and download an app that gives you the daily mass readings. Read those and then whatever notes are given with the study Bible on those scriptures. That way you’ll get a good dose of OT and NT each day, and mix it up.

I recommend the Ignatius Study Bible with notes by Scott Hahn. The issue is that it’s NT only.

The New Catholic Answers Bible is a good complete Bible. Has a lot of pages on answering questions that Protestants struggle with, like devotion to Mary, Purgatory, no contraceptives, etc.

Just my advice, take it for what you will.

I’d recommend an app that gives you a portion of the OT, Psalms/Proverbs, and NT every day.
I learned from experience that getting bogged down in Leviticus can undermine the resolve.
