Story

THE STORY "GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD" IS MORE THAN JUST A CLICHE. Crack open a Bible and you're likely to find...guidelines for living...answers to life's deepest questions...endless lists of people you've never heard of...an incredible story about a God who offers hope to a messed up world. Be honest. "Incredible story" isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think about reading through the Bible. Maybe you've tried, only to get lost among obscure genealogies and ancient dietary laws. Maybe you don't have a clue where to begin. At its most basic level, Christianity is a story about God and the remarkable lengths he goes to in order to rescue lost and hurting people. THE STORY gives you just that-the story of Scripture. Condensed into 32 accessible chapters, it sweeps you into the unfolding progression of Bible characters and events from Genesis to Revelation. Using the clear, accessible text of Today's New International Version, it allows the stories, poems and teachings of the Bible to read more like a novel than your typical religious text. And like any good story, THE STORY is filled with intrigue, drama, conflict, romance, and redemption. FEATURES * The story of the Bible...in its own words * Characters, events and teachings of the Bible arranged chronologically * Today's New International Version text * Read the Bible as the riveting, true-life story that it is.Zondervan Publishing Staff is the author of 'Story ', published 2005 under ISBN 9780310922650 and ISBN 0310922658.
