A Journey Through the Bible

  Look Inside

Explore the historical setting, the main theological message and what it means for us today.

“The book I wish I’d read before going to Bible College!”  That’s what I wanted to call this book. For it sums up much of what I felt was the foundation on which to build biblical knowledge.

The Bible can be looked at in many ways: doctrines, themes, characters, timeline and so forth and to some degree this book attempts all of these. It began life as a three year series of Sunday morning sermons at Thomas Cooper Memorial Evangelical Baptist Church in Lincoln, UK; which for understandable reasons is known as T.C.M. God had graciously blessed the church and the fellowship was growing by three particular people groups: new converts to Christianity who knew little or nothing about the Bible; students who arrived in Lincoln to attend the new university, many of whom had evangelical church backgrounds but many of their friends whom they brought along to T.C.M. were unchurched. Third were the folks who for a variety of reasons had moved to the Lincolnshire area. For some it was job relocation, others were taking up new employment with the new university, and still others were taking advantage of the lower house prices in an attractive part of the country. Many of those men and women had a church background and all of them expressed a desire to learn more about God and His plan and purpose for their lives, but for reasons which are unfortunately quite common today, many of them, especially the new and recent converts to Christianity, had a superficial view of the Bible. My response to this wonderful God-given mixture of men and women of all ages and backgrounds was to embark on a three year preaching plan to bring the message of the Bible, Sunday by Sunday, to the TCM congregation. Beginning with Genesis each message aimed to cover the historical setting and purpose of a Bible book and included its main theological message and what it means for us today.

A Journey through the Bible clearly has its limitations but derived as it is from the spoken message, it is deliberately relaxed in style yet packed with information, explanation and clarification. It answers many of the questions that men and women have regarding God’s Holy Word, the Bible and is the book I wished I’d read before going to Bible College.The book I wish I'd read before going to Bible college! - that's what I wanted to call this book, for it sums up much of what I felt was the foundation on which to build biblical knowledge.  Hugh Hill
