Your Bible is a wonderful gift from God. Ancient yet eternal. Unchanging yet living and active. Reading the Bible like it fell out of the sky last week, personally addressed to you — without regard to who wrote it, when and why they wrote it, and who they wrote it for — is a way of reading the Bible, but it should not be your only way. This is a guide designed to provide you with 12 distinct lenses that can turn the Bible from a mysterious, closed book to a rich, open one for you. They will equip you to dive into the Scriptures and swim with confidence and joy. You’ll also find additional helps and tools for deeper understanding as you study the Bible. May this guide help you discover all the treasures of understanding, light, and life they hold.
