1. Take lots of notes. Take the notes in your Bible, in a notebook, on your phone... Really, anywhere. As long as you have to notes. Underline as many things as possible. Highlight. Use pens. Get every piece of information that you learn down so that you can come back to it someday.
2. Don't start at the beginning. If you start in Genesis, chances are, you'll be okay for a while. But once you get to Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy... You'll be ready to give up. I suggest starting off with some New Testament or Psalms. They are much easier to understand and thus easier to read.
3. Look up info in other places. Ask your pastor. Ask your parents. Google it. Get a study Bible. Look in other parts of the Bible that mention the same thing. Purchase a concordance. Whatever you do, don't just give up if you don't understand something. Seek the information. Pray about it. Make sure you understand what you need to get from the passage.
