Sixty-six books written by forty or so people over nearly 2,000 years, in two languages and several different genres. Does the Bible sometimes seem like a confusing jumble of books, authors, and stories? How can you begin to read and understand it as a whole? In this excellent overview, Roberts takes a wide-angle view of Scripture, showing how the various parts of the Bible consolidate into one united theme, the kingdom of God, and center on one supreme subject, Jesus Christ and the salvation God offers through him. With this encouraging tool guiding you, you’ll be able to read God’s Word with new confidence and understanding.

The Trellis and the Vine (Recommended Book)
“This is the best book I’ve read on the nature of church ministry.” – Mark Dever
“If I could put only one new book into the hands of every person preparing for ministry today, The Trellis and the Vine would be it. … In fact, it’s so good that I want every leader and pastoral intern in our church to read it!” – David Helm
Kirk E. Miller
