A practical, five-week guide to opening your Bible with confidence and reading it well.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.2 Timothy 3:16
Many of us own a Bible we are not quite sure how to read. This five-week series takes the mystery out of it. Pastors Tim, Mark, and Kyle walk through where the Bible came from and which version to read, how the book is built, the simple methods that help a passage open up, and what to do when two verses seem to disagree.
The goal was never just more information. The final week turned the corner toward life, asking what would actually change if we believed and lived what we read. Whether you are picking up Scripture for the first time or have read it for years, this series hands you the tools to hear God clearly and let his Word reshape your everyday life.
