Understanding the Bible

Description

What is the Bible really all about? Why was it written and can it be trusted? Why should we read it? In this special edition of his classic work, John Stott answers these questions. With his usual clarity and authority he spells out the Bible’s purpose, examines the social, geographical and historical background, and outlines the Bible’s story line. He then guides readers to apply the Bible’s teaching to their daily lives.

John Stott was a well-known and highly respected author and Bible teacher with a worldwide ministry. He was president of Scripture Union England and Wales, and has spoken on behalf of Scripture Union on many occasions
