The Bible is a collection of ancient writings that tell one unified story of God’s involvement with humanity. It reveals who God is, how we are broken, and how God restores the world through Jesus. It’s more than a book - it’s a story that shapes our understanding of life and faith.

Bible Project: What Is The Bible?

The Bible matters because it connects us with God’s story of love and redemption. It teaches us how to live wisely, show love, and see Jesus as the center of history and our lives. It shapes how we understand truth, purpose, and how we relate to God and others.

A great place to start is one of the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John), which tell the life and teachings of Jesus. You can also try The Story of the Bible overview first to see the big picture before diving into specific books.

The Story Of The Bible

Approach the Bible with curiosity, patience, and prayer, asking the Holy Spirit for wisdom and understanding. Start by reading a small section, ask simple questions (who, what, why), and look for how it points to God or Jesus. Use resources like reading plans, study guides, or animated explainers to help with understanding.
