Customer Reviews
An excellent and clear presentation of the overall message of the Bible.
The Bible Overview does what it says on the can.
It is a very clear outline of the overall message of the Bible, focusing on Christ as the promised saving ruler of God's Kingdom.
The presentation makes use of simple and attractive graphics to help to chart the story.
It can be presented in a number of different ways, but the suggested method is to do it in 3 sessions, the first rapidly covering the whole story, and the second and third looking in more detail at the OT and NT sections.
The Leader's Manual contains enough information for anyone to present the overview. The study guides contain the main points of the presentation and an abundance of Bible references to support the points.
There is also some useful information on the COMA Bible study method (Context, Observation, Meaning, Application).
Being able to see the 'bigger picture' of the Bible is so helpful for a Christian at any stage in their life, and the course is also naturally evangelistic since it so clearly illustrates God's salvation purposes.
Highly recommended. My only small niggle is slightly practical - the graphics are a little small for use with a gathering of any size, but I have enlarged them to help with that. I understand the new DVD version includes digital versions of all the artwork to easily produce this kind of visual aid or alternatively to present via data-projector. 
Excellent introduction for beginners
I used this course to teach a group of Christians a little about the general bible story. It was useful both for newcomers to the story and those who had a good understanding of the overall picture.
I also plan to use it during a service suitable for all ages as it provides an excellent introduction to the overall message of the bible, helping people understand where individual elements of the story fit in to the final picture.
