Believers simply can’t
be considered literate
without knowing the
basics of the Bible. And
without that knowledge,
believers certainly can’t
be considered growing
disciples of Christ. Isn’t
it time your church did
something about it?
The Read the Bible for
Life movement teaches
believers how to read the
various types of biblical
literature in a way that
unlocks God’s intended
meaning, enabling them
to accurately interpret the
Bible and appropriately
apply its teachings to life.
