What comes to your mind when you hear the word “Bible”?
This is a very important question because, as St. Jerome once said, “Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ.”
Many people know of the Bible and acknowledge its centrality to Christianity, but nevertheless struggle with seeing the importance of it today. The Bible is often seen as a compilation of fable-like stories which evoke mere cartoonish visions and provide good “moral stories.” It’s also often seen as merely a book of regulations that anyone can choose (or choose not) to live by.
However, the Bible is much more than a child’s fairy tale story, a family heirloom, or merely a resource for helping us become “good” people. .
The Bible is the way God communicates His will for our lives! This is why it’s so important for us to be regularly reading the Bible!
