Why study the Bible?
The Bible is God's inspired Word. It's our Textbook for Life. Why wouldn't we want to study that!? However, there are many other reasons to study the Bible as well, including:
- Spiritual Growth: The Bible is the ultimate resource for guidance and wisdom. It's a source of inspiration. It's been these things for millions of people over thousands of years. It provides us with spiritual insights on how we can live a fulfilling life pleasing to God. It also shows us how to develop strong relationships with others and with God.

- Personal Enrichment: Even a non-religious person can find studying the Bible enriching. It can help develop critical thinking skills. It can also improve one's understanding of human nature and morality. And, it will broaden one's biblical worldview.
Overall, studying the Bible can offer many spiritual and intellectual benefits. It will enrich our lives in so many ways. However, the most important reason, by far, to study God's Word for me is the spiritual growth aspect! I want to know God better. I want to be all that He wants me to be. There's no better way to accomplish those two goals than to study His Textbook for Life!
