    Why together

    Read as a couple. Read together in small groups and Bible studies.

    Paul's letter, read in one church, then passed to another.

    And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.

    Colossians 4:16

    Hearing someone you love read changes how the words land.

    Husband

    1I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. 3O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.

    Wife

    4I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
