Helpful and Resourceful!
Really useful book that goes through themes, book overview and key aspects of each book. I found it extremely helpful with exegesis of difficult passages, and also very resourceful for planning sermons and kids church lessons. Obviously, everyone needs to read their bible and not just this summary. . . however this was a great way to recollect thoughts and get prepared to read a book in the bible. Definitely recommend to both new believers and those in ministry.

It's OK. . .
I bought this hoping it'll give me a clearer understanding of the Books in the Bible. However, I didn't get much out of it and it felt dry to me. The book doesn't provide any biblical revelation. It explains the chapters in each Book plainly and it is what it is. It might be helpful to some, but it wasn't helpful for me.

Great companion to the Bible. Readable and clear. Anyone can read this book, not just Bible college students.
