Dear Cassie,
Most all new Christians find it difficult to read the Bible at first. Which translation of the Bible are you reading? The most difficult are the KJV, the Amplified, and the New KJV. The easier ones to grasp are the New Living Translation (NLT) and the English Standard Version (ESV).
Also, do you remember any particular Scriptures that were confusing? There are several ministers and teachers here in the CF who would be glad to answer your questions, including me. Also, there is "Ask the Chaplain" forum.
biblegateway.com is a great place to read the Bible online in any translation you want. The site is easy to navigate, and you can do a 'keyword search' or a 'topic search'.
