How to Read the Bible: Single Session Bible Study: There's more to Bible study than "What's in it for me?" (Christianity Today Studies Book 256)

How to Read the Bible: Single Session Bible Study: There's more to Bible study than "What's in it for me?" (Christianity Today Studies Book 256)

Study after study shows that Americans revere the Bible. Solid majorities say—as they have for decades—that Scripture is God's Word. Evangelicals are even more committed to the Bible, in theory. Of course, we all know of the disconnect between what we say about Scripture and how—or if—we actually use it. The Bible might be the world's least-read bestseller. Yet even if we manage to buck the tide and actually crack open this book, we have not yet overcome the disconnect. That's because we read it not as God's Word, allowing it to transform us on its terms, but because we approach it for what we can get out of it—or allow our academic bent to crowd out what God is saying to us. We need to read Scripture as God intends—in a believing community, looking to Christians who have grappled with these issues before, and with Christ at the center.
