Why you don't read your Bible


Dan Hames suggests three reasons why we don't read the Bible:

  • ‘You don’t have time’
  • ‘You think the bible’s all about you’
  • ‘You think your bible reading is for God’s benefit.’

However, "in the same way that skipping breakfast is more of a missed opportunity than a morally dubious choice; not going to the scriptures for nourishment is not a matter of calling down the anger of God, but of omitting to take advantage of His good gifts to his children".
