The Drama of Scripture
“Much recent scholarship has emphasized the narrative quality of Scripture. This book takes that insight and brings it to life, enabling even the beginner to grasp the sense of Scripture as a single great story—a drama in which we are all invited to play a part. I am delighted to see solid scholarship made easily accessible in this splendid fashion.” —N. T. Wright, Research Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, University of St. Andrews

Living at the Crossroads
“This is a book filled with eye-opening insight, biblical nourishment, practical challenge, and robust hope. It turns the mission of God into our mission in the world and compels us to make some radical choices.” –Christopher J. H. Wright, international director, Langham Partnership International
-
The True Story of the Whole World
“This is a vivid introduction to reading the Bible as a coherent story of God's purposes for the world. It will not only help the new reader but will also enable the experienced reader to distinguish the central themes of Scripture from mere sidelights.” –Gordon J. Wenham, author of Story as Torah

It is rare, insightful, righteous, surprisingly diverse and a beautiful example of moving from a worldview to a way of life, from prophetic imagination to policy proposals, from scholarly insight to practical inspiration." -Byron Borger, Hearts & Minds Books
