Why is reading the Bible so difficult for so many people...even Christians? According to Lifeway research, 32 % of Americans who attend a Protestant Church read the Bible daily, while 12% rarely or never read it. The reasons may vary: It's difficult to understand. There are so many translations how do I know which is the best? It's so ancient, how can it possibly help me today? And for many, the Bible was always used to weaponize a preference or opinion.
