Synopsis

We know the Bible is important, but in reality many of us struggle to read it. Few of us are biblical experts though we may have started enough reading plans to be familiar with Genesis! If we're honest, the Bible intimidates us, confuses us, and reading it doesn't often thrill us.

And yet, the Bible is the place and means through which God has chosen to reveal Himself and His salvation plan. In a practical and engaging manner, Matt Smethurst, Managing Editor of The Gospel Coalition, presents nine heart postures prayerfully, humbly, desperately, studiously, obediently, joyfully, expectantly, communally, Christocentrically to unpack all that awaits us in God's Word. He shows us that viewing our Bible reading as an act of worship is the key to discovering a bottomless treasure chest of beauty, wonder, strength and joy.
