Do you ever wish you understood the Bible better?

Almost everyone does. Mature believers and new believers. Young and old. Those who have read the Bible for years and those just starting out.

This book, How to Understand the Bible: A Simple Guide, will help you gain an overall perspective on the flow and meaning of Scripture. It addresses questions like:

• What is the Big Picture of the Bible?

• How Should We Understand the Stories of the Old Testament?
• How Should We Interpret What the Prophets Had to Say?
• How Should We Understand the Teachings of Jesus?
• What Was Jesus Teaching in the Parables?
