In Psalm 119 David describes what should happen with God's Word: it should interact with us.  When we spend time in God's Word, we should emerge differently because it should change us.  If we never allow God's Word to change us, then what's the point of studying it?  Just for more knowledge?  Just so we can answer more trivia?  Certainly not!  God's Word is alive and active, and if we're not different as a result of spending time in it, then something is wrong.  This read through the Bible journey has been great for giving us a general idea of the history of Israel, but if that's all the Bible does for us then we're missing out!
