![NIV, The Story, eBook: The Bible as One Continuing Story of God and His People by [Zondervan]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41ndRPGiwtL._SY346_.jpg)
I had purchased this book mainly because it was being used at our church for small group studies. I knew it was a paraphrase and not a substitute for the Bible itself. With that being the case, I found the book to be fascinating. What I learned the most about was the Old Testament. I've never read the Old Testament before, at least not in its entirety.
I noticed a reoccurring theme in the Old Testament and it made me wonder if God is going to punish our country in same way that he punished Israel for turning its back on Him. Solomon was definitely my favorite person in the Old Testament and the reason is because he asked for knowledge and wisdom and not material possession which he received from God anyways.
Another part that I was not aware of in the New Testament was the full story about the Apostle Paul and when he was arrested by the Romans and forced to give an account. It was very interesting to read how this Jew, who persecuted those who followed The Way, would become one of the most ardent Christians of that time.
