MY STORY
1. Growing up, the way I viewed the Bible could best be described as:
Stories for children
A textbook - important, but dry
Good stuff, but complicated and beyond me
A resource book
A book just for grown-ups
A holy book- mystical, but worthy of honor
Irrelevant to me and/or my family
Other _____________________________
2. What do you do when reading the Bible becomes boring or doesn't seem to be providing any benefit?
