...presents a case that will prove eminently attractive to those for whom "Jesus is Lord" is more than a slogan

I earnestly believe that Bible study isn't an end in itself, it is a means to an end - knowing God. But becoming deeply familiar with how to read the Bible well is a critical skill for all Christians. All churches ought to put on Bible training regularly, run Bible study courses and classes, and show all our people how to do the working for themselves. We ought to encourage our people to read excellent and accessible books on the subject
My good friend Ruth Perrin from Kings Church Durham has started to put together a really good, approachable site full of studies and reflections on Bible characters. Under the strap line "ever wondered if there are people like you in the Bible?" Cloudofwitnesses.org.uk looks like it could grow and develop into a great resource for every church member and maybe students in particular. Recommended. Nice one Ruth!
