Putting the "Bible" back into the Biblical Worldview

TruU.org has up a good article on some of the myths surrounding the Bible that have cropped up in popular culture in the last decade or so.
Ever heard the term "biblical worldview"? If you haven't, it can be defined like this: having a perspective of the entire world that is informed by the Bible.
This sounds like it's a fairly easy thing to obtain. You just read God's Word and accept it as accurately representing reality. Unfortunately, it's much harder than it looks, but not for reasons that you might initially think.
What I want to do in this article is provide a few observations that might help you more effectively approach the Bible and glean what it is communicating.
We need to keep in mind the truths of the Bible and the truths ABOUT the Bible. (TrueU.org is a Focus on the Family site.)
