How to Read the Bible:

The Bible can be a daunting book. There are so many books inside this book.

The conversation in your head often goes like this:

  • Where do I start?

  • How much should I read?

  • What did I just read?

  • I am confused!

  • I quit….

Here is my best advice:

Start your devotional journey by reading the book of Colossians. Read one chapter (or even half a chapter a day). I encourage you to have a journal, but you don’t have to.

Consider these questions:

  1. What did I discover about God in this passage?

  2. What did I discover about people in this passage?

  3. How will I commit to obeying this passage this week?

  4. What is one big thing I need to take away from today?

After that, I would strongly suggest purchasing the Foundations New Testament Book (F260 New Testament). It is a fantastic guide that reads 1 chapter at a time to cover the New Testament in a year. This is great for beginners as well as long-devoted bible readers.
