Bored with the Bible?

Some Christians have become bored with the Bible because they've forgotten its importance, Marshall Segal, who serves as the associate editor of DesiringGod.org, explains.

Segal suggests that while some Christians neglect to read their Bible, there are others who [love] reading the Holy Book. "They can't get enough of it. As far as you know, they would just as likely go a whole day without food as without the Bible."

"Their happy discipline convicts and, if you're honest, sometimes even annoys you. Who is it in your life who is most likely to pray like this?" Segal asks.

Segal describes the Bible as: "absolute truth. Personal power and relevance. All-surpassing beauty. All-knowing love and wisdom. All from the mind and mouth of God. All in the pages of a book we can hold in one hand."He then references Psalm 119:14-20, which serves as an example of how enthuastic Christians should be when reading God's Word.
