Reading the Bible – radical!

In my prized possession is a letter from John Stott.

He was replying to say that he supported me, as the new President of the Cambridge Inter-Collegiate Christian Union, in my desire to revitalise the daily Bible reading and prayer life of the Union. Hardly radical stuff. Or is it?

Then, and again now, I sense that there is a renewed need for us to emphasise the basic daily habit of ‘Reading the Bible.’ My observation is that it is becoming more common for us to be so distracted by other ‘spiritual content’ that we focus less on the actual Bible and more on ‘devotionals.’
