Not enough. But I pray. But again, not enough.

I never have. If I had read the Bible and knew Latin my crossword puzzle completion percentage would look like Larry Bird's career free throw percentage. It's just hard to read a book where every other word needs to be translated from 2000 year old English to today's English.

Dang near everyday. I don't trust anyone giving me pieces. Especially people that use it to condemn others. Unfortuantly some churches. Which tells, me they didnt actually read it or made it imperial. Truth=Love, true love cannot be forced. Who helped me a lot was Timothy r Jennings and his studies. As well as Graham Maxwell with his "conversations about God"(free amazing book). Good luck to those struggling like I used to.

Few times a week. Not nearly enough!

I don’t read it regularly but I have read it in its entirety twice using a daily Bible.

4-5 times a week, mostly for a message.
I studied it in depth for about 9 years.
I came real close to taking a preaching position.
I find that reading it
1) you can get the literal meaning
2) if you are getting to know the heart of God - you can get the spiritual symbolism.
3) you can get a personal message from God that may have nothing to do with the previous 2 things.
But it IS your daily bread, food for the spirit.
Without that food the spirit will become weak and eventually die. But once you know the scriptures you can simply dwell on them, often that leads me to reading it.

I used to read it regularly and study it. I’ve slipped and honestly am not where I should be with the Lord.

I read it in spurts on 1-2 months everyday for 2-3 hours. Then go a month reading it once a week. Definitely can change your life

There are links in this thread to audio bibles. No need to read, just listen.
