I never really could read the bible that much, until recently. I use to have only the KJV and it was very hard to understand. But now I got a parallel study bible, so I go through the NKJV NCV and the Message Version. I find this is a great way to understand scripture. Secondly, I would take a highlighter, and pencil and (i don't know if you guys look down upon writing in the bible) go through each verse at a time, if anything sticks out I highlight it, and then you can also try to summerize what God is saying, and then what he is trying to teach.
I think thats a pretty sound way of interpreting scripture. I also like to use the Blue Letter Bible
It gives you commentary on the books and alot of other cool features.
Goodluck, I'm sure you will do fine.
