How to read the Bible

a simple guide to deeper intimacy with God
David Platt
Book - 2025

"Into the fray of broken relationships, fleeting pleasures, anxiety, and discouragement in this world, pastor and author David Platt speaks of a wiser way--a way that leads to deep love, everlasting joy, life-changing hope, death-defying courage, and never-ending peace. Through rich biblical insights, stories from his own journey, and thought-provoking questions, Platt provides both inspiration and practical steps to approach the Bible with fresh eyes by applying the M.A.P.S. method: Meditate on and memorize God's Word ; Apply the Scriptures to every layer of our lives; Pray the Bible with bold faith ; Share the word with people near and far. How To Read the Bible is a compelling reminder that studying the Scriptures is meant to be much more than a rote dry religious exercise. God's Word is an expression of his affection for us, and as we engage it wisely and consistently, we will encounter a life-transforming love that is well worth giving our all to pursue."--from back cover.
