The Bible — Helpful, but Not Read Much

The Bible may be a source of wisdom for many Americans, but most don’t read it for themselves, a new survey shows.

More than half have read little or none of it, reports LifeWay Research.

“Even among worship attendees, less than half read the Bible daily,” said Scott McConnell, executive director of the evangelical research firm based in Nashville, Tenn.

“The only time most Americans hear from the Bible is when someone else is reading it.”
