Bringing the Bible Into Focus

We all come to the Bible wearing different lenses. Amazingly, these ancient words still paint clear images today-of God, of ourselves, of our world-even for those of us with slightly blurry vision.  
  
In clear, approachable language,*Bringing the Bible into Focus*will encourage you to*search*for divinely inspired, historically accurate truths; to appreciate a*glimpse*of the various genres of writing; and to apply life-changing principles as you*envision*your place in God's plan. If you need to sharpen your focus, take a look inside. *Bringing the Bible into Focus*emphasizes that gaining deeper understanding of the Bible begins with opening God's Word and asking good questions:  
• What is God up to in this passage?  
• How does this fit into God's big picture?  
• What's the historical background?  
• What's the emotional pulse?

 • The Law-a privilege, not a restriction  
 • The Prophets-a journal of God's private thoughts  
 • The Gospels-bringing you face-to-face with Jesus  
 • The Epistles-love letters from GodRead less
