Some time ago, I took a course in speed-reading

We were required to practice every day for at least an hour
- the only drawback–I chose to read books that didn’t interest me, so I wouldn't get distracted by their content
• but going fast, I got nothing at all from them – I wasn’t reading, but just looking at words
- later on I was exposed to a method of slow-reading
• the purpose: to get as much as possible from what I read
◦ this applied specifically to reading the Scriptures
◦ the benefit is hearing God speak to me clearly and directly
• and that is what I want to teach you this morning
