Resources for reading the Bible

We live in a unique age when there are so many resources for reading the Bible. Many people find the Bible difficult or uninteresting. But we must make the effort. The Christian faith cannot be sustained apart from the Word of God. Here are some great resources to help you study the Bible:

"Look at the Book" These are YouTube videos by John Piper. They are short, 10-minute studies, where Piper will teach on a single verse. The screenshot is of the lesson on 1 Peter 1:1. Try his series on 1 Peter -- listen to one video a day. You will not regret the investment in time.

Bible Project. These are engaging, short teaching videos on the Bible on YouTube. They have eye-catching graphics and insightful teaching by Tim Mackie.

YouVersion. This phone app is a wonderful Bible resource. They have multiple reading plans (an easy on ramp is the 3-year Bible plan which takes just 5 minutes a day). They have amazing audio narration (the NIV "dramatized" version is pretty well done!). They also have a lot of video resources (most of which are good -- haha). The Bible has never been so accessible.
