The Bible is among the most important books in history, but have you ever tried to read it? It is contradictory and can be bewildering. Written over a period of about 900 years it contains many voices, perspectives, ideas and practices having to do with the God of ancient Israel. Because of its vastness, the Bible can be abused and can be used harmfully. Explore how to and how not to read the Bible, not to discern its true meaning but some of its possible meanings.
