Well, I wonder who wrote the book

For those accustomed to gaining knowledge, understanding and wisdom via the printed word, rumors that the medium is dying have been “greatly exaggerated.” You can’t beat the experience of easing into a cozy chair with a good story and a warm cocoa, then letting your imagination do the rest. So it is with the Bible (2 Samuel 22:31), even if Amazon founder Jeff Bezos would love for everyone to adopt the latest version of his hand-held gadget, Kindle, and leave more pedestrian paperbacks out of the equation altogether. Regular Scripture review, like membership, has its privileges, not only in bringing the reader into a closer relationship with God (John 1:1), but also in allowing a glimpse of the Master’s plan through the eyes and pens of 40 authors, covering sixty-six books (Isaiah 40:8). When several people read a passage and then get together to discuss an issue or idea, the active sharing of philosophies, beliefs, and interpretations benefits everyone – even if there may be a difference of perspective. Not everything you peruse at your local bookseller is completely black or white, but other than a good bargain at a discounted price, one thing is guaranteed… a read through the Bible is certain to make you stop and think. And, should it speak to the heart and call you to action, you will readily realize how fundamental reading really can be.
