I never saw a useful Christian who was not a student of the Bible. (D. L. Moody)

If you look at the Bible as a whole, it’s redemptive and beautiful, and it’s God’s love story to mankind. (Tom Shadyac)

Introduction. Getting to know our Heavenly Father and of His love. Through the Book He wrote specifically for that purpose — the Bible.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. (Proverbs 9:10, ESV)

Open my eyes, that I may behold
wondrous things out of Your law. (Psalm 119:18, ESV)

Almighty God loves us, this we believe with all our heart.

Jesus loves me, this I know,
for the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong;
they are weak, but He is strong. (Anna Bartlett Warner, Psalter Hymnal, 1987)

This childhood hymn still sings true in our heart. We hum it along as we do our daily chores What is the true meaning behind this oh! so familiar hymn? These words of comfort, strength, hope and our Father’s love.

Almighty God loves us so dearly, He wrote the Bible. So all mankind has access to Him and knows much He loves us.
