The One: How Sixty-Six Books Tell One Story About Savior for People

Most of us know the stories. Almost none of us know the story.Sixty-six books. Forty writers. Fifteen hundred years, three languages, three continents - and most of us still read it in pieces. >The One walks the entire Bible as what it claims to be: one book, telling one story, about one Savior, gathering one people, headed toward one hope. No seminary required - just the Book, opened and explained the way it was first taught, around a kitchen table, to people who asked hard questions. Inside: - Why forty writers across fifteen centuries produced one message - and what that leaves a skeptic to explain - Where the canon actually came from, and why "a committee voted on it" is exactly backwards - The entire storyline in six acts, and where you are standing in it right now - Nine Old Testament pictures of Christ - and four rules that keep you from finding Him where He isn't - Who you became the day you believed, and what you are now part of - What Scripture actually promises about the end, and what it doesn't Now available with a companion workbook. The One: Companion Workbook turns the book into twenty sessions of real work in Scripture - three passages per session to look up and write out by hand, room to answer every discussion question, and a guide for leading it in a small group. Sold separately. Every chapter closes with three questions worth arguing about, so it works alone or in a group. Includes a one-page reading grid, a quick reference to all sixty-six books, and a guide for leading it in a small group. Find Habakkuk. By the end of this book, you'll know where it is.
