Don't give up on your love of Scripture! It's definitely not a remnant from your Evangelical past. We all need to read more Scripture and meditate on it for the health of our souls.
Ive noticed once you get deep down into the Holy tradition of the Syriac Church, it is one of the most scripture oriented traditions in the whole Church. Once you read Aphrahat or Mar Jacob of Serugh you can tell they would run circles around any evangelical! You need both the Liturgy and the Scriptures, you cannot understand the Scriptures if you do not understand the Litrugy and you cannot understand the Liturgy if you dont understand the Scriptures.
