Product Description
by John Walsh (Author)
Seventy five percent of the Bible is written in story format, which makes it easy to read and understand. So why do most people have a hard time understanding the Bible?Well, it would be easier if you could sit in an easy chair by the fire and listen to someone tell them to you; or possibly go out on the back deck during a warm summer evening and listen while sipping on a glass of ice tea.That is how this book is written. It uses a 'telling format' for ease of reading or listening. It puts all the stories in chronological order, eliminating duplicates. All of this is done in common everyday language.Oh, nothing has been skipped over because it is offensive. All the "dirty laundry" of the Bible is included. If you read through all these stories, you are going to get the whole story, as given to us by the original writers.There may come a point when you ask yourself, "Is that really in the Bible? I don't remember that." We have made it easy for you to check it out for yourself because every story has a scripture reference. This will help you explore the Bible in a whole new way.So start at the beginning and take it one story at a time. In that way you will get the entire Story of God.
