Book Description

Series: Welcome to the Episcopal Church | Publication Date: April 1, 2007
This book invites newcomers into a deeper engagement with Scripture. Many new Anglicans may be nervous about opening the Bible, which can seem foreign or irrelevant; others simply don't know how to begin. One of the often overlooked gifts of the Anglican church is that the texts and doctrines of the Bible are embedded in our prayers, liturgies, and creeds. Thus, Anglicans tend to know the Bible better than they realize - they just don't know chapter and verse. Making that knowledge explicit and placing it in context can help to overcome the 'disconnect' many Anglicans feel with the Bible, and can open the way for further and more in-depth study.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you've ever wondered how the Bible came to be in its present form, March 14, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Welcome to the Bible (Welcome to the Episcopal Church) (Paperback)
Well written, this short book discusses how, over the millennia, the Bible came to be in its present form, from the oral traditions of the Jewish tribes through the Greek and Latin used by the Mediterranean peoples in the early part of the Christian era.
