Devotions and readings suggested for daily meditation and prayer
Lectionary readings provide a disciplined way to read through the Bible. These readings are available for both lectionary cycles, the Sunday and festival readings and the Daily Lectionary.
Read them online, subscribe to our email list, print a reading list or listen to "Hear the Word," the lectionary podcast.

I just received an email from the Presbyterian Church (USA) from a list I subscribed to more than a week ago. I don't know why the delay (maybe they process subscriptions by hand), but I'm glad it's here.
It's the daily lectionary reading via email. I've already blogged about the Bible-in-two-years programme I'm following (http://alphalim.me/hijacking-a-bad-habit-to-promote-a-good-one-d ). This should be another exciting option.
The lectionary is a three-year cycle of readings that covers the whole Bible (and optionally, the Apocrypha). It's based on early Jewish reading patterns and has been developed throughout the history of the church. You might find it helpful.
I'll be trying both email subscriptions for awhile and see which I'll drop (or I might go whole hog and keep following both). The lectionary reading has the benefit of being in sync with the church year, though. So - well, we'll see what happens.
Let me know if you give it a go!
