The Great Adventure: A Journey Through the Bible: Bible Timeline Seminar Workbook Book

The Great Adventure Bible Study Program The Great Adventure Bible Study Seminar teaches you the simplest way to approach the Bible by identifying a list of books that tell the story from start to finish. You will begin with them, reading them chronologically so as to get the ?big picture.? When we remove the books that duplicate information, there are twelve such books in the Old Testament and, for the sake of simplicity, two in the New Testament. Anyone who reads these fourteen books will have a rough sequential knowledge of the history of the people of Israel and the beginnings of the Christian Church. Reading through the Bible historically can be compared to laying down fourteen segments of track for a train trip. As you travel along the historical route of the Bible, the teaching office of the Church, guided by the Holy Spirit, acts as a conductor explaining what you are seeing. About the Great Adventure The purpose of The Great Adventure Bible Timeline Seminar is to help you lay down the ?train tracks?: to set your route through the Bible and get you prepared for a lifetime journey of discovering God in the Scriptures. In the process, it will: Identify the ?narrative books? of the Bible ? the fourteen books that will lead you chronologically through the story of salvation history ? and show how the remaining fifty-nine books fit in Divide salvation history into twelve identifiable periods to help you remember the progression of the story (and include salient details from secular history to help you place salvation history in time) Explain how God?s plan unfolded through the forging of a series of covenants so that you can understand not just the story, but where it is going and how you fit in it Give you memory aids ? like a band of colored beads to help you remember the twelve periods, a helpful bookmark and a colored chart of all the important information Give you a plan for reading through the fourteen narrative books on your own, and ways for continuing your reading beyond thatRead More
