One Book One Story (Paperback)

The Bible is - 66 books written by 40 authors over a period of 1,500 years Or is it? Pastor Dave asserts that the Bible is actually a single book that tells a single story. It is God's story of exile and rescue, and all the pieces fit into the larger story as the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Intended to be easy reading for the average Christian, Pastor Dave avoids theological jargon and is careful to explain Greek words and cultural concepts that are essential to understanding the story of the Bible. He has found a unique way of looking at the Bible. Many readers, both new Christians and seasoned believers, will be interested to see his analysis of the Bible as one full story. This is a different approach to studying the Bible and will be a wonderful addition to personal and group study. By using appropriate scripture throughout the manuscript the author builds himself as a knowledgeable and authoritative writer on his subject. He uses God's Word to support his assertions, which is especially important in this context. This helps give reference to readers for where they can read further in the Bible to understand God's will even more clearly. David W.
