Spiritual Disciplines: Reading the Bible

• There are many different versions of the Bible. This might help you chose the right one for your current needs.
• We suggest you visit a Christian Bookstore or your church’s library/book store for help picking one if this is your first time reading and studying the Bible.
• Most churches offer classes and studies to help you learn the Bible in a more focused, useful way. They are usually free and you typically don’t need to be a member of the church to join in the education.
