In my novel A Seat at the Table, a mentor character, Nanette, shares some tips to help Joy pick up her Bible and start reading it again. Inspired by the novel, I'll take Nanette's tips and walk you through six ways to read and interact with God's Word.

Note: Reading the novel is not necessary to follow this roadmap...and there are no spoilers either. I promise. ;-)

By completing these sessions, you will:

• Gain confidence in your interactions with the Bible (Once we do this thing together, I'm sure you'll be able to branch out on your own.)

• Increase comprehension (I mean, who wants to spend time reading something they don't understand.)

• Shore up your ability to recall what you've read (This is especially helpful when you're sharing what you've learned with a friend!)
