A great read to give one an overall concept of the ancient texts called The Bible. I bought an extra copy for our bible study teacher. Great to loan out to christian newbees. Section relate to specific areas of the bible to continue your study. Note: I am a fan of the Dummies book series. At age 79, they are easy reading and informative.

This is a great book that puts Bible stories in an easy to understand sequence, as well as providing a great review of the stories themselves. I'm not quite finished with the book, but I'm enjoying it and I've gained some new perspective based on the writers use of Hebrew and Greek word translations. I would recommend this book for someone whose been a Christian for awhile; however, I would not recommend this for a new Christian because some of the satire might be misleading or confusing.
This book is a must for anyone new to their faith. The Bible can be a hard book to get through and this book really does a good job of explaining things and putting them into context as to what the words meant when they were written as well as what they mean to us now. I love the tidbits of history and trivia thrown in the mix too. It has really made a difference in how I read the Bible and understand what our Heavenly Father has for us.

It is so easy to follow and learn from. I just LOVE it. It's simpler than reading the Bible. However I don't re comment NOT reading the Bible. I believe in the Bible very much, and still use it.
