Foreword by Greg Boyd 2019 Outreach Magazine Resource of the Year: Theology/Biblical Studies Category Many people have questions about Scripture they are too afraid to ask. Are all the stories of the Bible true? What about all the books that got left out? What do we make of all that violence? What do we do when biblical authors seem to disagree? And what if we encounter situations the Bible doesn’t address? Drawing from the best of contemporary biblical scholarship and the ancient well of Christian tradition, scholar and preacher Meghan Larissa Good helps readers consider why the Bible matters. Known for presenting complex theological ideas in accessible, engaging ways, Good delves into issues like biblical authority, literary genre, and Christ-centered hermeneutics, and calls readers beyond either knee-jerk biblicism, on the one hand, or skeptical disregard on the other. Instead, The Bible Unwrapped invites readers to faithful reading, communal discernment, and deep and transformative wonder about Scripture. Join an honest conversation about the Bible that is spiritually alive and intellectually credible. Read the ancient story of God in the world. You may even learn to love it.

Did you ever play 'connect-the-dots'? Connecting the dots of prophecy throughout the Bible reveals the truth of God's love for mankind—His plans to rescue His own, punish the lawless, and judge the nations. 'Revelation Unwrapped' is the picture God draws through His spoken Word to the faithful from Genesis to Revelation. Eternity lies beyond time as we know it. How does the Earth get from here to there? For four thousand years God spoke through His prophets and shared His plan.

'Revelation Unwrapped' examines those prophecies, from Enoch to John, and confirms verse by verse the book of Revelation. Easy to understand explanations will open your mind to receive the truths of the events that are already happening on the horizon of the 'last days'. Your personal experience with 'Revelation Unwrapped' will be so enlightening that you will be compelled to share this book with family and friends.
