The Bible. You think you know what's going on but, to be honest, you're not quite sure. There's a bunch of characters doing seemingly random things, a lot of rules and regulations, difficult language ... You may find yourself asking, 'What's all this got to do with me?'

Starting with a brief look at the Bible's overall plot-line, the Mettle Guide goes on to give summaries of all sixty-six 'mini-books' in God's Word, some background info on Bible places and cultures, facts about the main characters and more.

God's plan is not to confuse you; He wants to show you the way to the best life ever - life with Him. So, dig in and fin out what it's all about ...

Présentation de l'éditeur

Reading the Bible can often be a bit like trying to watch satellite TV without a decoder, with the story or teaching seeming to appear and disappear through a thick fog. We think we know what s going on but aren t really sure; the characters can seem boring and dull; and what on earth does it all have to do with us anyway? In this new book in the $Mettle$ series for 14- to 18-year-olds, Jonathan Brant has produced a decoder for young people as they read the Bible. Stressing the importance of reading the actual Bible as well as this Guide he explains how the people of the Bible lived, what they liked and disliked, what they were afraid of and what their concerns were, as well as when and why a particular book of the Bible was written. He also gives some very helpful guidelines as to how to approach Bible reading. The book is written in language to which 14--18s will relate and includes cartoons and black and white illustrations.
