The Bible at a Glance

Many of the strange characters, stories and cultures in the Bible can make it quite a confusing read at times. Yet we're promised that "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful" for us today.

The Bible at a Glance gives you a way in. Every book of the Bible receives its own concise introduction, explaining what is happening, why it matters and how it contributes to Scripture’s larger story. From Genesis to Revelation, the guide follows the thread running through the whole Bible and repeatedly points towards Christ. 

Handy to keep alongside your Bible. Before starting an unfamiliar book, spend a few minutes with its introduction; or use the guide to decide where you would like to read next.

A shared invitation 

Helping people open the Bible with greater confidence is central to the work of Our Daily Bread Ministries. We make resources like The Bible at a Glance available without cost because we want more people to read Scripture and meet its Author for themselves. If you value that work and are able to contribute, your donation helps us continue producing and sharing free Bible resources with others.
