Cindy Matson has some great advice “To the New and Nervous Scripture Reader.” She wants you to:
- Expect obstacles
- Don’t get discouraged
- Play the long game
- Don’t let resources replace your own direct reading
Here is a taste of her great advice:
Hi Friend,
I heard you set a goal for the new year to read Scripture more faithfully. That’s great! But I was also told that now you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed. You want to be in the Word, but you’re just not quite sure how that’s going to work. I get it; and if I could, I’d like to offer you a couple of pieces of advice. I’m sure I won’t answer every question, and I’m not even going to try to tell you what or how much to read. Instead, let me try to anticipate some problems, assuage some worries, and add a word of caution.
