This review is from: What the Bible is All About: Bible Handbook: NIV Edition (Paperback)
I am a firm believer that reading, memorizing and studying Scripture is best done in context. It helps me tremendously to be familiar with who the author is, when the book was written and a little background on where and why it was written. What the Bible is All About answers these questions plus many more. Now, when I begin to study a specific book in the Bible or simply want a little background on a passage I'm reading, I turn to this book as a complementary tool. I highly recommend it as an addition to any Believer's library!

This review is from: What the Bible is All About: Bible Handbook: NIV Edition (Paperback)
This book is an excellent description of each book in the Bible within about ten pages per book. It explains concepts that would otherwise go unnoticed. I am using this book for my Sunday school teachers, who are excited to be able to get a better understandng of the Bible, a long with some of my 11th and 12th grade youth who want to learn more. This is one book that you will be glad you purchased.
