About this ebook
C’mon, admit it: You haven’t been reading your Bible. It’s so … long. Honestly, it’s intimidating. What you need is an overview. Something that will pull it all together.
Like Storylines.
It’s like having a chat with your best friend … who also happens to be a Bible scholar. Or in this case, Mike and Andy.
They’ll tell you there are six overarching themes in the Bible: Jesus, Covenant, Presence, Kingdom, Salvation, Worship—each revealing a way of understanding Scripture that makes it live and breathe, relevant to your life today. Grasp these Big Ideas, and you’ll see this amazing book in a new light. You’ll see how each theme develops and how it relates to the whole. Mike and Andy also include a summary of the Bible and discuss of how it came to be in its present form.
So pour another cup of joe and get comfortable. Grab your Bible, too. Once you understand the storylines, you won’t be able to put it down.
