What's the big story that ties together all the little stories of the Bible? In this short book Iain D Campbell tries to answer that question by emphasizing seven key points on which the storyline of the Bible hangs. These are seven moments of awe-inspiring activity on the part of God in the history of the world, events which revolve around Jesus Christ, whom the Bible portrays as the Saviour we all need.

Endorsements

"What an ideal book for a generation which is biblically illiterate, yet fascinated by stories! For Iain Campbell shows how the Bible tells the greatest of all stories—which has moreover the merit of being true. Taken together, these seven highlights of God’s saving activity provide a rounded picture of the Person in whom alone salvation is to be found—the Lord Jesus Christ. Dr Campbell has mastered the art of profound simplicity, with a wealth of teaching contained in an accessible and fascinating narrative. ‘Wonderful’ in more than one sense!" - Edward Donnelly, Minister, Trinity Reformed Presbyterian Church, Newtownabbey and Principal, Reformed Theological College, Belfast
