Our world is fractured on every level—from the family to international relations. The news constantly reports broken relationships, strife-ridden communities and warring nations.
So what hope is there for a world of fractured relationships? Discover the Bible's surprising answer: the local church.
This revised and updated edition of Christopher Ash's Bible overview takes readers through the big sweep of Scripture, following the theme of scattering and gathering God's people. It shows how the local church is at the heart of the Bible story and at the centre of God's plan for remaking a broken world.
This book will refresh your love for the local church, and give you new hope for the hurting world around you.
I loved this refreshing and accessible Bible Overview. Christopher deftly handles and summarises the whole story of the Bible, drawing a straight line from the beginning to the end and showing how different parts hang together, all while focussing the reader on the glory of the God who is One. It's full of pastoral warmth and wisdom with application throughout and left me encouraged to persevere with the local church and delighting in what God is doing. A really refreshing Bible overview!
