Recovering the Lost Art of Reading

A Quest for the True, the Good, and the Beautiful

In today’s technology-driven culture, reading has become a lost art.  With smartphones offering information at the tap of a finger, reading a book is often seen as a tedious and outdated activity.  Christians are not immune to this problem, as many find it hard to read books – even the Bible – consistently and attentively.

Recovering the Lost Art of Reading addresses these timely issues by exploring the importance of reading generally as well as studying the Bible as literature; giving practical suggestions along the way.  In this helpful guide, Leland Ryken and Glenda Faye Mathes encourage a new generation of readers to overcome the notion of reading as a duty and learn to see it as a delight.
