When I first became a Christian nearly 20 years ago, one of the first things I was encouraged to do was read the Bible.

My mentor suggested I start with the Gospel of John and then read the rest of the Gospels. Then, he encouraged me to read the rest of the New Testament.

As I worked my way through the New Testament, my life began to change dramatically.

In college, I liked to party. I did many things out of selfish motivations. And I wasn’t afraid to run people over or weasel my way to where I wanted to be.

But the Bible changed how I saw the world and related to it.

Now, I have come across some Christians who treated the Bible as a chore. And I would do this too as the years went on.

Yet, looking back, there is an essential nature to reading the Bible and today, I want to share that with you.
