Reasons Why You Should Read Your Bible

  • It's either that or watch Dancing With the Stars.
  • Jesus read his Bible (or course he had it memorized, and, technically, he wrote it...and it was probably the NIV).
  • Bono wants you to.
  • George Bush reads his and he's a good, wise Christian.
  • You can't find your copy of Joel Osteen's book Your Best Life Now so the Bible will have to do.
  • You aren't getting into heaven unless you read it EVERY SINGLE DAY.
  • Playstation is broke.
  • What Would Kirk Cameron Do? (WWKCD)
  • Because Kim Golden is more spiritual than you are now.
  • Lost your copy of the Bhagavad Gita and/or can't read Sanskrit.
  • Song of Solomon.
  • Book of Leviticus is a good cure for insomnia.
  • Look up theme verses for your Christian punk band.
  • Need answers to life's questions and your Magic 8-ball is broken.
  • Helpful tips on crucifying your annoying sibling.
  • Donated to John Hagee Ministries and you need to kill time until Hagee's new book (your "free" gift) on Israel and the end times arrives.
  • Because someone sunk your battleship.
  • Two words: talking donkey (think Shrek but without the voice of Eddie Murphy).
  • After 12 hours of making butt wipes anything would be a good distraction.
  • Because, in some mysterious, incomprehensible way it puts us into a posture of attentive listening (if we let it), where the Spirit of Christ can speak life-change into us (if we let Him), transforming us into citizens of a kingdom-here-yet-coming, whose only prayer is "Your will be done."
