10 Questions to Ask Every Time You Read the Bible

This book was written by an LCMS Pastor, Rev. Andrew Jones, and offers simple questions to consider as you read the Bible and helps guide readers to notice things they might have missed otherwise. - Vicar Seth

The Bible can sometimes feel intimidating. It can be both a history book and an encyclopedia as it can teach about the cultures and attitudes of the people living during Biblical times, but it also can answer questions you may have about faith, life, and wisdom.

The Bible is so much more than these two things. It is the very Word of God and directs us toward life everlasting with Christ Jesus.

Ten Questions to Ask Every Time You Read the Bible, proposes ten questions that will help you navigate God’s Word with clarity and confidence. Every question can be answered by looking within the Bible. The questions will direct you to discover the text, context, and real-life application of passages in the Bible.

God’s Word is constantly at work, shaping, teaching, and leading us to the understanding of its contents and Jesus’ redeeming grace.
