The Bible Book by Book Summary

The Bible Book by Book: An Illustrated Journey Through Its People, Places and Themes by Cris Rogers

The Bible Book by Book is a fully illustrated and accessible introduction to each book of the Bible.

Taking the books in sequence, it explains genre and style, the locations involved, the main themes and some key points to bear in mind as you read. The Bible can be an intimidating book, but each introduction is designed so it can be read in five minutes. A list of further reading materials is also included for those who want to delve deeper into particular books or topics.

This book is pithy, direct and engaging, and will help everyone to experience Scripture as the living, breathing story of God and His people.
