Understanding the New Testament and Its Message: An Introduction

I have read this book with an open mind and find it of great benefit in studying and reading the New testament. In my opinion starting Bible study without having read this book is like attending a sumptuous banquet and eating just the desert - later thinking about what the main courses may have been. It certainly could or should be considered as a text. As you read it you know you will be going back to re-read and highlight many key passages.

A Great Book

Simply searching inside this book, reading the "Introduction", the "Suprise Me" excerpts, and the reviews on the back cover will give you a sense of the books depth and understanding. I say don't be put off by the first reviewer's dogma. I'm going to buy this book and look forward to using it to study the New Testament and expanding my faith.
