You are very important. Important to God. He created you in his image and he loves you. He introduces himself to you through his word, the Bible. And his word invites you to enter an intimate relationship with him: the supernatural, cosmic divine, the God of creation.

People often ask, What is God like? The answer is in the Bible. And the more you read the Bible, the better you will know God and deepen a relationship with him.

Yet many Bibles are read only now and then. Why? Some people say that the Bible is too big; it is complicated; it takes a lot of understanding; you must be religious; its ideas are old; and many other reasons.

Perhaps you feel this way, or you are new to the Bible. If so, this little book will help you love to read your Bible.

Read your Bible! will help you navigate the Bible and make it readable and understandable. You will see how God reveals his nature and character on every page of the Bible. It outlines the structure of the Bible and how each part is important to growing a relationship with God and understanding his purposes for you. It includes extensive extracts from the Bible to make a point or tell the story, rather than paraphrasing the Bible or employing human interpretations.
