THE STORY OF THE BIBLE
The Bible isn't
just another story...
It’s the story behind every other. The Bible is not primarily about people, a nation, places, creation, religion, morality, life-advice, self-help, reconciliation, or forgiveness. The Bible is about God: who he is, and what he’s done.
You’ll just need three things: a time, a place, and a plan.

HOW DO I UNDERSTAND
It’s one thing to know what the Bible says, it’s another task to know what the Bible means.
God wrote his Word, the Bible, in a way that you can understand, because he wants you to know him. However, understanding any book well requires careful thinking, and the same is true with understanding the Bible.
You also need two things to rightly understand the Bible: help from God himself, and a heart that’s willing to listen.
