How to Read the Bible in an Hour or Less

You can't actually read the whole Bible in an hour, but here's a guide to getting the essence really fast.

First, connect to http://www.biblegateway.com/ (do it in a new window by right clicking and selecting "Open link in new window"). If you want to change the Bible version, click on the drop-down box to the right. A very readable version is the New Living Translation.

Next, copy and paste the first of the following Bible references, into the box above "Search the Bible" then do the search and read the section of the Bible that opens. Repeat this with all the references.

Genesis 1
Genesis 2
Genesis 3
Genesis 12:1-9
Luke 2
Mark 1
Luke 22
Luke 23
Luke 24
Acts 1
Acts 2
Romans 10:1-13
Revelation 21

There are gaps, to be sure, but the overall message of the Bible isn't nearly as hard to grasp as a lot of people think it is. Over the next few blogs, I'll walk you through it.

Enjoy.
