I must agree with you Catherine, regular reading of the whole Bible in context is definitely the way to go.
I’m currently doing a course by John Hughes which is extremely helpful and informative and fills the gap in my day when I need to be disciplined with my time. (Guest) (16/10/2026 18:16) Thank you Catherine, interesting read. Courses are a wonderful way to experience the bible.

So true! Without His Word we are fish out of the water. The Word of God gives us the instruction for life and as you said The Holy Spirit is The Revealer of Its Meaning. We can't pick and choose if we are going to walk in closeness with God, in the identity, love and authority that Christ purchased for us. Thank you for your article :-)

I've found The Way of the Spirit Reading courses too! Honestly, reading this way changed my thinking, got my perhaps previously narrow evangelical framework into a much bigger context of the whole work of God throughout history and beyond, showed me how God wants me to play a part in his wider plan, and gave me a zest for more! Inspiring and restful. Thank you, Catherine.

Having had experience of the way of the spirit courses I totally agree. The pick and mix is a good picture to think about and it’s easier to just snack rather than eat a three course meal. I think that reading the bible and allowing the Holy Spirit to show us what it all means is a much better way. Thank you Catherine for the article x

Yes, thank you Catherine, God doesn't just want to feed us with his word but to speak to us and show us what to do and where to go. We are so blessed to have his word!

Amen! Let's fully believe the Word of God and that with Him ALL things are possible! "Without faith it is impossible to please God..." 🙏

Hi Catherine, thank you for your article, it brought me back woolworths and the delight of pick and mix sweets, it was hard to choose but I always add more chocolate rainbow drops at the top.
Thank you for making this comparison with bible reading. It made me think, what should I be adding more off. I tend to do the pick and mix, but this month I will choose a the book of Acts to delve into, like having just rainbow drops. Thank you Catherine.

Thank you Catherine, this is so true! When I first became a Christian I really struggled to read the bible and would use the pick and mix approach. Then I was introduced to The Way of the Spirit and I was so blessed by God's Word and Holy Spirit to start to see His big story! It is still the tool I use for reading the Bible and I have seen it bless so many new and older Christians. Man cannot live on bread alone!

Thank-you Catherine for sharing from your heart such pertainant information. True ministry is an outflow of our relationship with Jesus. And you hit the nail on the head. We don't want to just know about God we want to know him , be known of Him and nake him known. ( Page 2 of 3. Page 1 Page 3)
