Understanding the Bible

Understanding the Bible will provide you with a foundational comprehension of the entirety of Scripture with a focus on broadening your vision of Jesus Christ.

This book answers foundational questions:


- Who wrote the Bible?
- What is its message?
- Why is it thought to be a 'holy' book?
- How does one read and interpret it?

By delving into the geographical, religious, and historical concerns that shaped the world of biblical times, you'll see Jesus as never before: both as a man of his times and culture, and as the culmination of a divine providence that prepared the way for the ministry of the Messiah.
