OCTOBER & NOVEMBER BOOK OF THE MONTH
‘God’s Big Picture: Tracing the Storyline of the Bible’ By Vaughan Roberts.
Sixty-six books written by forty people over nearly 2,000 years, in two languages and several different genres. Sworn by in court, fought over by religious people, quoted in arguments. The Bible is clearly no ordinary book.
How can you begin to read and understand it as a whole?
This book gives you the big picture of the Bible! It provides both the encouragement and the tools to help you read the Bible with confidence and understanding. And it points you to the Bible’s supreme subject, Jesus Christ, and the salvation God offers through him. We have physical copies available for purchase over in the church hall. However, if you wish to order your own copy online or read via Kindle, you can do that here.
