Summary
This brochure, “How to Read the Bible” by Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia, presents an Orthodox Christian approach to reading Scripture. Its central message is that the Bible is not merely a historical or religious text but a living communication from God that invites a personal relationship with Him.
It teaches that the Bible should be read prayerfully, obediently, within the Church, with Christ at the center, and as a personal encounter with God. Rather than treating Scripture only as a source of information or historical facts, it encourages readers to see it as a living means of communion with Christ and participation in the life of the Church.
