Scott Slayton has four ideas to help you develop a robust biblical literacy. He writes:
Most Christians do not know the basics of the biblical storyline, basic facts about the Bible’s major characters, or the texts on which our most foundational doctrines are built. Many Christians try to have in-depth discussions about ethics and the relationship between Christianity and the government without knowing even the most basic facts about Scripture. It’s like trying to solve an equation when you don’t know that 2+2=4.
His suggestions are:
- Repeated reading
- Daily reading
- Scripture memory
- Supplemental reading
These suggestions may sound straightforward, but we have a hard time implementing such reading habits! Slayton explains what it could look like for you.
