Yet we all need help with learning to read—and all the more with the most important book in history and the very words of God himself. Gary Millar is a gifted guide for this most important of pursuits. Learning to read the Bible will not only give you answers; it will give you life—the very kind of life in your soul you’ve been longing for. ” David Mathis

“Gary Millar has a knack for taking complicated issues and making them clear. More and more people in our churches and in society are unfamiliar with the Bible. Here we find a wonderfully accessible book on how to interpret and understand the Bible. Behind the simplicity of this book is a deep and profound wisdom. An ideal resource for personal study, for small groups, and for continuing Christian education. ” Thomas R. Schreiner
“Whether you’re a new believer in Christ or a grizzled veteran of Christianity, this book will not only give you the tools to understand and apply the remarkable truths found in the Bible but also inspire you as you encounter the astonishing beauty of God found in his very words.” Julius Kim
“This is a wonderful book—fresh, engaging, accessible, practical and rooted in good scholarship. I particularly appreciate the superbly clear examples from Bible passages, and the way Gary Millar makes some pretty meaty thinking come across as not nearly so difficult after all. Thank you so much, Gary! I shall be recommending this with enthusiasm. ” Christopher Ash
