How to read scripture?

1st proclaimation of God's word is through scripture reading.
Rev Yong Wai Yin

6th July 2009

9.30-12pm

After a short ice breaker of getting to know each other although some of us are quiet familiar with each other, we sang great is the Lord and thy word. Straight after that, we started with the scripture reading workshop my dad sign me and my mom in.This is basically some of the gist:-

1. Communicating God's truth (in a fresh way)
2. Communicating God's impact

Difference in communicationg and reading
-where do you emphasize the words?
-need to understand the purpose

Prepare reading the situation
Background of the passage is very important

Different Genre and style
Tone for the appropriate book
exp: Phillipians -more of affection, Beginning of Galatians and 1 Corinthians- more of violence.

How to prepare?
* Find out, read the passage & jot down impressions (questions)
* eye contact

Know how to use your voices
*adjusting microphone
*highlight on emphasis
*communication and proclaimation of the Word is more effective
*speak to the microphone
*don't read the subtitles in the bible (they are only for references)

**Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path**
