The Bible is both literature and the primary source of information about God and from God.  So we must learn to read it well.

Here is a simple list of actions to do while your read.  (Next post will include a fuller process.)

• Read: Conscious concentration with repetition.
• Record:  Write down what you see in what your read: observation, key thought, insights, summarize.
• Reflect:  Meditate–ask yourself what is going on in the passages; what can you learn about God, yourself; what do you need to do.
• Respond: Act on the truth you have learned
