Engaging 12-Week Study Helps Readers Better Understand and Apply God's
Word
The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible
readers better understand and apply God's Word. These 12-week studies
lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four
basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text
at a deeper level; (2) "Gospel Glimpses" highlight the gospel of grace
throughout the book; (3) "Whole-Bible Connections" show how any given
passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption,
culminating in Christ; and (4) "Theological Soundings" identify how
historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout
Scripture.
In The Parables of Jesus, Douglas Sean O'Donnell helps readers study
some of Jesus' most famous narrative parables--including the good
Samaritan, the prodigal son, and the rich fool--and understand their
place in the storyline of Scripture.
