Lack of Bible literacy…
Lack of Bible literacy…
…is the greatest crisis in the Christian congregation worldwide.
AS CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS WE NEED THE WORD OF GOD DESPERATELY FOR OUR GROWTH, DISCIPLESHIP AND EFFECTIVENESS.
So, why don’t more Christians engage with the Bible?
When asked about frustrations that keep Christians from engaging the Bible,
Barna Group surveyors’ top answers included:
– “don’t know where to start”
– “language is difficult to relate to”
– “the layout is difficult to navigate”
– “don’t understand the background”
Simply put, it’s hard to engage with something you don’t understand.
Statistics show...
Statistics show...
... that 67% of Bible-reading Americans never or rarely ever engage their Bible outside of a church service.
Barna, in their State of the Bible 2022 survey, found that scripturally engaged people have been declining over the last three years:
28% in 2019
25% in 2020
19% in 2021
Every year, the number of Christians who engage with the Bible decreases largely because they simply don’t understand it.

The study by Barna found that "just over one-third of U.S. adults (34%) reads the Bible once a week or more, while half (50%) read the Bible less than twice a year (including “never”). And overall, only one in six of U.S. adults (16%) reads the Bible most days during the week.
It's time to do something about it! Let's make a difference and promote Bible literacy!
