The Pharisees were the most diligent Bible readers the world has ever seen, but Jesus said they missed the entire point because they didn’t see him. That means it is possible to read the Bible and miss what it says.

You can read the Bible. And you can start right now.

Reading the Bible is a life-long pursuit. For some of us, it’s still a very daunting book. Maybe you’ve tried to read it several times and can’t seem to make it through. Perhaps you’ve read it multiple times all the way through, yet you sense there is still more to learn.

No matter where you fall on that spectrum, I want to highlight some things that make the Bible unique among all the other books in the world. My hope and prayer is that these encourage you to take up and read.

A quote from Richard Lovelace on what to tell yourself each morning.

Jesus is the main character of the Bible. Miss that, and you misunderstand the Bible. Get that, and it all suddenly starts making more sense.
