Open Scripture. Join the Conversation.

For many of us, the encounter with Scripture is limited to the excerpts that are read on Sunday morning. Many of us—and our neighbors—are biblically illiterate, unsure of how to engage Scripture. We are unaware of the rich Lutheran insights that have been helpful in understanding the many ways that God engages us through the Bible. The challenge of Book of Faith Initiative is to address these realities directly and to experience more fully the power of the Word and how it helps to transform our lives.

This site is here to help people engage Scripture in a way that is inviting and non-assuming. Spend a few minutes taking the quiz. Go through all 10 questions. Think about the meaning embedded in the scripture passages that follow every answer. Ask yourself some of the questions noted on the “Engage Scripture” link. And finally, be open to entering into a conversation which is deep and broad, reaching across all ages and the many cultures that inform who are as a people of God.
