I thought the bible is way overrated. I never thought I could get myself to read it. It’s an old book. I had a feeling that it belongs to church reading. No longer. I am slowly being attached to it. It’s starting to catch my attention.<\/p>\n
How?<\/p>\n
Why?<\/p>\n
Recently it got referred to quite heavily in Love Life for Every Couple, a book I just finished reading. That book was in turn recommended in The Takeaway, where the author also recommended the Bible.<\/p>\n
I have a New Testament Bible at home. It’s written in Polish, but I could not find the passages that were referenced to in the books. So I started searching. I\u00a0 found an easy to read Bible, The Book. I just saw it at Barnes & Noble yesterday. It’s easy to read as it’s written in a modern language. I should say, translated to the modern, easy to understand language.<\/p>\n
But how am I going to use it? Or, how is it going to help me?<\/p>\n
I’m not sure. Yet.<\/p>\n
It looks like The Book is loaded with great advice. It’s has a lot of great information on how to lead a married life. I think it also has some great information on how to become a better person.<\/p>\n
Is it an ultimate self-help book? Could be. I think there is a reason that it’s considered the most influential book of all times. A lot of people recommend it. A lot.<\/p>\n
I guess I was never ready for it. I think I’m starting to be ready now. I have that feeling now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
