You'd think that anyone who believes that God wrote a book would make reading that book completely one of their top priorities but apparently not. I mean, forget the salvation message, just the credentials that the Creator of the Universe wrote a book should make it a must-read for everyone.
Normally the preacher just reads passages and tells them "everything is righteous and true" and "The Bible is God's word, and God's word is holy and true" and says things like "No contradictions", and that satisfies most Christians.
