“Campbell and Bell have done a masterful job of introducing readers to the Bible.”
—James T. Dyet, author of over 30 bible study courses

• The captives, the women, the poets, the prophets, and more through the Old Testament
• The story of Jesus as told in the four Gospels
• The acts of the Apostles as they spread the word of the new church; the letters from Paul, Peter, James, John, and Jude on a variety of topics; and John’s apocalyptic Revelation
• The Apocrypha including Maccabees 1 and 2 along with other books included for other practices
• An all new reference glossary featuring names and places with descriptions and cross-references to their discussion in the Bible

Reader Reviews

Very Unhappy (1) - I was very disappointed in it. The pericope sections are just restatements with very simplistic explanations. It didn't open up the Bible for me in any way and I can't imagine making my Sunday School class suffer through it. I recommend The Complete Idiot's Guide Bible Study for Teens -- it is much more interesting and has more information to help open up the Bible. And you don't have to be a teen. I bought this version because I couldn't imagine having adults use a teen book. But the teen book is much more interesting, with so much more information. Good luck in your search for helpful Bible resources. I'd honestly skip this one, though.

Love It (4) - I love this quick and easy reading reference to the Bible. It gives me the opportunity to read the Bible in conjuction with this book which makes all the diference in the world when you are such a babe in this area. I am teaching myself from this book in the hopes that my understanding of the Bible is widened Love it Love it Love it

God Bless

who knew the bible was so entertaining (5) - I've been trying to read the bible for years but just could not get into it. This book is "the best of" the bible and actually makes it readable. And better yet, it's understandable! I love the sense of humor the writers have (of the guide not the bible itself) - I actually laughed out loud at one of the titles. This book truly does make reading the bible an enjoyable experience.

A Walk In the Garden of Knowledge (5) - Enjoyed the book. It was purchased for my husband and now is in the possession of our daughter who is thrilled with it.

The Complete Idiots Guide to the Bible (3) - I have not had a lot of timeto review...but I like what if have read!Where is my last order...my check has still not cleared the bank. Thanks!
