Book Reviews of Drama of Scripture, The: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story

Book Review: A Phenomonal Overview of Scripture
Summary: 5 Stars

A very scholarly yet readable book that was brilliantly crafted to give us a picture of the story of God and where we are in it. I came across this book after reading somewhere that Rob Bell uses it in his church in Michigan.

This book is fantastic and will paint a picture of our role as Christ followers and what we can hope for in Christ's return.

I highly recommend this book.

Summary of Drama of Scripture, The: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story

The story of the Bible and its account of God's action in the world give meaning to our lives and provide us with the foundation for our actions. The Drama of Scripture is an introduction to the basic story line and theology of the Bible. In considering the biblical story, the authors emphasize the unity of the whole, viewing the Bible as a drama in six acts--creation, sin, Israel, Christ, church, and new creation. Two overarching themes tie the biblical story together--covenant in the Old Testament and kingdom in the New Testament. Throughout, the authors suggest, God is revealed through the story and calls us to participate in his drama.
