016 | Visit Many Books But Live in the Bible

Hi, Dad,

Do you want to spend more time in the Bible, but find it difficult to be consistent in this habit? Do you want to give your children a heritage of honoring and studying God’s word, but you easily forget where you were reading, or don’t feel like you’re getting anything out of it?

Today I have a few simple, practical tips to help you live in God’s word by building little routines that will help you make Bible reading a habit. Enjoy!

“Visit many good books, but live in the Bible.” —attributed to Charles Spurgeon

Tips to help you LIVE in your Bible:

1. Get a printed (not digital) Bible.

   My favorite for under $15 (currently on sale): KJV Personal Size Giant Print Reference Bible, imitation leather, black/tan

2. Use quality pens to mark your Bible.

   This the kind of pen I have used for the past 25 years or so:

   Sakura micron pigment ink pens

3. Tab the passage(s) you are reading.

4. Keep a notebook or journal close by to jot down your observations.

5. Keep a place and time to read each day.

6. Write the date and location you read a passage.

7. READ YOUR BIBLE!!!

Scriptures Referenced

• 2 Timothy 4:13 
• Revelation 1:3
