honestly..when i first became an actual christian at 23 yrs old i read the bible many times...as for an actual number i cannot tell you...but i am ashamed too say that in the last probabaly 3 yrs or so..i have hardly picked one up. but despite that..i still do pray..maybe not as much as i should. but i still do.
i also do not currently go to church...i have a hard time finding a church i would like to stay in. i am very picky about what church i go too. i can smell a false ( ie money grubbers, not filled with God and full of religious bigotry) from a mile away and i get uncomfortable in them.

Have never read it cover to cover as you would normally read other books ...
The Bible is made up of 66 individual books , not in chronilogical order...sytematic study does not mean starting at the front cover & working through but instead , following a planned format studying specific topics.

if you read at least 5 chapters of the bible a day you'll be able to finish reading it in a year! i have read it maybe about 3 to 4 times.

I'm an Atheist, but I'ved read it 5 times completely through.
I try to do it at least once a year, I just read some before I go to sleep or whenever I have time.

I read some scripture everyday and even use it to give answers on here sometimes. also I read it every Saturday evening at Bible study.

I don't keep count.
I havent read the whole thing through in its entirety.
Mostly i read/study the parts that pertain to endtime prophecy. Which i read just about everyday.
