What does it mean to be "People of the Book"? Our faith in Jesus is founded on the written word of God, but do we approach it as such? Western Christian culture offers many so-called spiritual helps--words of wisdom, one-liners from catchy sermons, videos, and innumerable podcasts. Although these can be helpful, far too many Christians equate these sources to spending time with God. Amid the prattle and movement of a fast-paced, distraction-filled world, this book is a call to return to the Bible: slowly, prayerfully, with Jesus, in the Spirit, alongside other believers. Sit, walk, and live with God in a vibrant way--through his word. Let's become a people of the book again. By his Spirit, the authors invite readers to live in the text with them.
