Over the many years of coaching Christians to engage the word, I developed a simple acrostic as a framework anyone can use.
The acrostic I use to read the Bible every day—and enjoy it—is PRAY.
- P— Pray
- R—Read
- A—Analyze
- Y—You
In this episode I unpack each part of the acrostic in detail and offer some encouragement for making the Word part of your daily routine.
I mention a book that I highly recommend for studying Scripture. I read it as a teenager. It has been updated and is still one of the best.
It has also sold a lot of copies: How to Read the Bible for All It’s Worth by Gordon Fee and Douglas Stuart.
