Of the Logos

Have you seen the sign that says "The best vitamin for a Christian is B1."? It's cute but I beg to disagree. I believe the best daily vitamin for a Christian is the Logos (Greek for word; see John 1:1). For to be a Christian means to be "Of Christ" and in the Gospel of John we learn that Christ is the "Word made flesh" (John 1:14) and that Word is the Bible. Therefore I believe it is imperative to daily read, mark, learn and inwardly digest the scriptures.

The church in our nation and our generation is in the midst of a crisis and it's name is Biblical Illiteracy. This blog is my response to this crisis. My goal is to go beyond discussing the crisis and respond with action by providing tools and ideas for Christian individuals, groups and congregations to promote Biblical literacy.
