The Bible is a big book and reading it can seem a bit daunting, especially if you’re not sure where to start. It’s also a very important book. Is has had a huge impact on the world – socially, morally, politically – and even on the language we use. This book is structured around 12 phrases that come from the Bible and uses them to explain the whole story – from the first book (Genesis) to the last book (Revelation). If you want to find out what the Bible is all about, and why it has changed the world, this book is for you.

What a feast! This is a fresh, engaging and thought provoking retelling of God’s story. There’s lots of insight into Bible truths combined with timely application to our contemporary lives. By taking in the whole sweep of Bible narrative Glen’s book brings into view and connects together parts of the story arc that can easily get missed. This Bible overview will renew your delight that God’s wondrous story is your story and is good for the soul.

If you are one of those people who is prepared to sit down and give a bit of time to understanding someone else’s perspective, then when it comes to getting a handle on the Christian story, this is just a great place to start.  Glen Scrivener – the Australian Oxford–educated stand–up comedian is a unique communicator and here wonderfully he brings his profound gifts to bear, as he tells what Christians believe is the greatest story ever told.  But be warned, I really don’t think you can read this glorious helicopter ride over the Bible story and remain unchanged!

The gospel is a powerful drama of a great fall and a heroic rise. Glen Scrivener adds color and context to the beautiful story of redemption found in the Bible. This book will contribute to your love for all that was accomplished through the living, dying, and rising of Jesus of Nazareth
