  Bible Question:  What is a good book in the Bible to read? I started with the gospels and then went to the Psalms, Job, and Proverbs. Now I am reading Genesis. What do you suggest? I have this thirst for knowledge and I just do not know how to go about getting it filled.
 
Bible Answer:  Here at NeverThirsty we have offered an unusual way to read the Bible in one year. We call it Logos Reading . Each day a different passage of the Bible is recommended for your reading. By reading each of the passages you will read through the Bible in the order in which it was written. This has some great benefits. First, you can see the unfolding drama of divine truth as God gave it to us. 
      Second, the first book in the Old Testament that you will read is Job. It is the oldest. Next you will read the first five books of the Old Testament. These books were written by Moses. Then comes Psalms. This book spans about 1,000 years. When you reach 1 and 2 Samuel, you will start reading books from the minor prophets and then the major prophets. Why? Because some of the minor prophets lived during the time of Samuel, King Saul, and King David.
      Third, when you read the New Testament passages, you will be reading them in the order in which they were written and in the order the early Christians read them. The gospels were not written at the same time, but were spread out over a period of about fifty years. As you read, try to imagine how Christians in the early church must have reacted with each new letter they read.

 
Conclusion:  I would encourage you to read along with us and read the Bible in the order in which it was written. As you read, remember that you are looking to see more of God. The goal of Bible reading should not be to "read through the Bible in one year" but to see God and grow in your intimacy with God.
