Two Conversations
The Bible is unique for most of us in that it is quite possibly the only book we read [or try to read] regularly. I am a big fan of bound, printed material — but I rarely have the time or energy to read a book repeatedly. Even my favorite books — that I may have read a few times — are no comparison to how many times I have picked up and read the Bible. We tend to forget that the Bible is still a book. The Bible is unique in that the way it came about is so vastly different than any other book. It also boasts content that no other book can. But that should not stop us from being able to look at the Bible as a collection of written words. Our understanding can be expanded when we realize patterns within its pages.
