Publisher:

, 2002

Overview

Continuing the Old Testament story, this volume touches on topics such as Suffering, Resurrection, Wisdom, Hope, Faith, and many more. Just as in the first, this second part also contains a “Spotlight on Christ” which will help you see how the whole Bible points us forward to Jesus Christ.

What began as a sermon series by Colin Smith to be preached over a period of two years at Arlington Heights Evangelical Free Church in Illinois—in order to teach the story of the Bible—quickly became the Unlocking the Bible Story series. Smith provides a big picture view of Scripture. This volume packs the main themes and concepts of the Bible onto its pages, providing the reader with rich encouragement and life-changing truths.

Endorsements

In a postmodern age where many know only of the stories of the Bible, but little of a comprehensive view of Scripture and a biblical worldview, Colin Smith's Unlocking the Bible Story is a breath of fresh air. Read it to understand how God has worked throughout history and through the ages to provide salvation and redemption for fallen man.

—Joseph Stowell, President, Moody Bible Institute

This is a satisfying and insightful overview of Scripture that tells 'the old, old story' in a fascinating way. Even seasoned Bible students will find their eyes opened and their hearts warmed as they read it.

—Warren Wiersbe

Unlocking the Bible Story explores the mountain peaks of Scripture, helping us trace the Bible's story line form beginning to end. I promise, it does unlock the Bible, showing us the unity of God's revelation. Best of all, it shows that Christ is the central theme, as the biblical narrative moves from one event to another. Excellent for those who want to 'get into' the Bible.

—Erwin W. Lutzer, Senior Pastor, Moody Church

Unlocking the Bible Story flows from the pen of a pastor who understands how important it is to encourage God's people to read and discover the power of the Bible. Colin Smith has written a practical tool to facilitate the wonderful adventure of reading and understanding the Bible. I recommend that every pastor and church consider deepening their Bible knowledge by utilizing this tool that has produced incredible results in the church Pastor Smith leads.

—William Hamel, President, Evangelical Free Church of America
