Most Christians believe the Bible and read it irregularly, and the gap between those two facts is usually a matter of method rather than motivation. This booklet sets out a straightforward approach to studying Scripture for yourself, so that reading produces understanding rather than a vague sense of having done one's duty.

The material moves through observation, interpretation and application - looking at what the text says, working out what it means, and then bringing it to bear - together with the practical habits that sustain the discipline over years. A Grace to You booklet, short and inexpensive enough to hand out to a whole class or small group starting out.
