If you’re led/inspired to read the whole thing one day, great. I’m sure it will be helpful. Or maybe you’ll be moved to take it on in a moment when you’re building spiritual discipline. Again, great.

But if those scenarios never happpeb and you don’t read but still strive to follow biblical teachings and live a good life: totally great. Focus on that and let the rest come.


Thank you

Maybe try a chronological bible that shakes up the books so events are covered one at a time instead of in pieces scattered across books. It might be easier to stick with if you’re able to read it as a narrative.
