Product description
ACTUAL SIZE : 21x13.7x2.9cm
The Bible is a collection of letters, poems, visions, prophetic oracles, wisdom and other kinds of writing. The first step to good Bible reading and understanding is to engage these collected works as the different kinds of writing that they are, and to read them as whole books. We encourage you to read big, to not merely take in little fragments of the Bible. The introductions at the start of each book will help you to do this.
But it is also important not to view the Bible as a gathering of unrelated writings. Overall, the Bible is a narrative. These books come together to tell God’s true story and his plan to set the world right again. This story of the Bible falls naturally into six key major acts. More precisely, we can say the story of the Bible is a drama. The Bible was written so we could enter into its story. It is meant to be lived.
This is why another key to engaging the Bible well is to recognize that its story has not ended. God’s saving action continues. Welcome to the story of how God intends to renew your life, and the life of the world. God himself is calling you to engage with his word.
