Formed by the Scroll of Scripture | E1

For most of church history, access to the Bible came at great cost. William Tyndale gave his life so ordinary people could read the Bible in their own language. Today, we carry it in our pockets and have it in our homes,yet the Bible often sits unopened. From the life and teachings of Jesus we learn that the Bible is not a textbook, storybook, or rulebook. It’s a library of writings that together reveal God and tell a unified story leading to Jesus. It is both fully human and fully divine, “God-breathed,” and when we submit ourselves to its story, it does more than inform us, it transforms us. To become formed by Scripture means we must learn to both read the Bible, and submit ourselves to its story.
