These are wise words from the blog of Berean Community Church in Irvine, California, where Peter Kim is the pastor:
5. Read the Scriptures like a love letter. Do not skim through it as if to do your daily duty of reading in this book. This letter was written with great care and love for His people. Therefore we ought to read each verse with care and concern as if we are reading a love letter from our significant other. Just as a love letter is not written hastily God’s divine Word was not written to be read in haste. It is better to know deeply what one verse says than to know superficially the whole Bible.
Such wise words, from a church that really lives out its name.

soli Deo gloria.
that would make sense…for people who have actually gotten a love letter. haha
