The New Testament for Everyone
Tom Wright Jesus taught us to pray for our daily bread; we can never simply live on yesterday's bread, on the interpretations and translations of previous generations. So he created the Bible for Everyone, supplemented from the translations in the popular For Everyone commentaries. A rounded, reliable version of the Bible that's accessible to scholars and general readers. Includes introductions to each biblical book, maps and a glossary. In easy chunks, it can be used as a novel, devotional or studied in sections.
How to Read the Bible: So That it Makes a Difference Michael Parsons To read and engage with the Bible we need to understand the story, the styles of writing and the approaches we find in it. Michael Parsons encourages readers to look at the whole biblical storyline, demonstrating ways of approaching individual texts. Topics along the way include understanding different genres, the importance of narrative, imaginative reading, praying the Bible, difficult passages and what to do with them, and how to apply scripture to our own lives.
