Understanding the Bible - Head and Heart, Part One: The Old Testament

Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart provides readers a forum for more fully comprehending the Bible. Each book of the Bible tells a story that relates to the larger story, and to understand each book’s story it is important to understand the larger story, and vice versa. To do so, however, entails a careful reading of the entire Bible, grasping both the fact of the story and the spirit of the story. Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart provides prose summaries for helping the reader to understand and remember the fact of the story, and poetic summaries for helping the reader to experience the story and thereby to more readily ingest its spirit.

Since Understanding the Bible: Head and Heart would be a bit lengthy under one cover, it is divided into two parts: Part One addresses The Old Testament, and Part Two addresses The New Testament. This publication is Part One. Part Two is forthcoming.
