Scripture's Story - by Jared August & Mark McGinniss & Kenneth Gardoski (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

At the heart of God's story is the hope that all things lost to man will one day be made new.

The Bible presents a single narrative that begins in Genesis and ends in Revelation. Although the sixty-six books that make up the Bible are undoubtedly diverse, they all testify in unique ways to the working out of God's redemptive plan. Scripture's Story proposes that every book of the Bible testifies of the coming day when God's promised Offspring will destroy evil, restore creation, and dwell with his people forever. It is this unifying hope that forms the basis of the faith of all believers throughout the ages.
