The Bible is a book like no other. It is the Word of God, given to us so that we can know and love God well. That’s a very exciting thing, but it can also be overwhelming, especially since it is also an ancient book (actually, a collection of books) written to people in cultures very different from the ones we live in today.
We’d love to help you feel confident with reading the Bible, and we recommend that you Start with John.
The Gospel of John is accessible and relevant, and at the same time it is filled with some very deep theology as we encounter Jesus and learn who he really is. To help you on your way, we’ve created three different resources. It is our hope and prayer that one of these three will be helpful to you as you desire to engage more deeply with God through his Word.
