Customer Reviews

Damaged book

I ordered three books which was labled as in good condition, 2 of them were true to their description, one book was badly damaged and this should not have been mailed, unethical.

Powerful Learning Experience

This book teaches you the Bible in the order that events actually took place and ties "repeat" Scriptures together to help you better understand and interpret what God is saying.

Finally able to read the entire Bible.

After starting to read the Bible but never being able to complete the task, I thought that I was hopeless. A lot of books within the Bible repeat the same information, but I just thought I was getting names and events confused. Frustration and confusion would build until I gave up. This time I have had an easier time because I am reading about an event in one book and then immediately reading about the same event in another book instead of reading about it several days later. I am also encouraged because I feel like I have achieved something each morning when I check off the day's "assignment". The book contains a timeline which reinforces events and each day is set up with the readings split into different events which helps me to review. Finally there is a verse to reinforce the day's major points. All in all, this book has been a great blessing.

All in Context

The contents of this book include timelines and outlines surrounding each day's reading, each week's reading, and the year as a whole. Cover to Cover also contains maps of journies made by the Isrealites, daily thought sections, key scripture to memorize, and has many more study sections than I could list. I think the best part about this book is its organization and flexibility. The progressive days are numbered, as opposed to dated, adding to the flexibility of when to start reading this book. This format for reading the Bible I am finding refreshing. Putting all the passages in context has helped me understand God's Word in a more meaningful way. I am finding it truely a joyful journey through the pages of the Bible. I have recommended it many times and am buying it as a Christmas present for several people on my gift list.
