The Bible is far more than a great piece of literature or a book of inspiration and spiritual truths. It is a very practical manual for daily living. In many ways, it is God’s “Service Manual” for life. It tells us how to live a godly life, how to maintain loving relationships, and how to fulfill our reason for being on this earth. The Bible relates to every area of our lives. It clearly tells us how to use all of our resources—our gifts, time, talents, money, possessions, and skills—for God’s glory
