Actress Danica McKellar recently shared some lessons she learned after reading the entire Bible in one year.
“All I can say is that reading the Bible was very comforting to me,” McKellar said. “And the strange thing is, even during the chapters like getting over Job, the poor guy is suffering and his friends are like, ‘Yeah, well, it’s probably your fault. That’s what you did. .”
According to reports face wire, McKellar used a “Bible Review” plan in reading the Bible chronologically over the course of a year. One of the most important lessons she has learned is the importance of humility.
“There’s a theme in the Bible of ego and humility. I’d say even more so than a story of good and evil, but it’s definitely there,” McKellar said. “From a human perspective, I feel like the lessons we have to learn are about ego and humility and how to live life humbly. And that doesn’t mean anything is taken away. I just disagree.”
She pointed out that the Bible not only warns us of the dangers of pursuing the wrong things, but also encourages us to walk humbly.
“Humility is the reward,” McKellar said. “If you can develop humility… God will come rushing to you and it will feel really amazing.”

“I feel so blessed…People say, ‘Oh, you’re so bold,'” McKellar said of her willingness to discuss her beliefs. “I don’t feel like it’s daring. I don’t feel like it takes courage or anything…I think that’s how I want everyone to feel when they go through something so beautiful, so wonderful, so life-changing. It is.”
