About this episode

This episode discusses where to start reading the Bible, emphasizing the Gospels and the practice of praying the Psalms.

In this edition of Ask the Church, we begin with the central conviction that in Scripture we encounter the living God—and that this should shape the urgency and priority of Bible reading. We offer a practical suggestion of beginning with the Gospels and letting the rest of Scripture “radiate out” from Christ, the key who helps everything else come into focus. We also encourage the daily practice of praying the Psalms, which teach us God’s own words for praise, lament, and trust, and in turn deepens and enriches our common life of prayer.
