God made us to know, love and serve Him. He is our rightful ruler and He chooses to rule over our lives through the truth and wisdom of His Word, the Bible. God’s word is the “instrument of Christ’s Lordship over His followers” – so every idea about God, thought, action and word should be measured, tested and corrected by the Bible.

One of the major mental blocks to getting into the Bible is the myth that it is difficult to understand and must be interpreted by “experts”. It’s the privilege of Christ followers to get into the word of God and hear God speak directly to them.

Nobody would know the truth about God or be able to relate to Him in a personal way if He didn’t choose to make Himself known. The Bible is the record of God’s self-disclosure – through it we come to know God and can learn His ways. This means we should make it a priority to get into it and understand it.

In a culture, streams of thought develop and define what the people in that culture consider normal. People are pulled by this current of thought to adopt the perspectives and values of the society at large. We must learn to respond wisely to the "informal" settings in which the mainstream flows.
