What is "The Book"?

"The Book" is the Bible - the world's all-time best-seller.  The Bible enjoys the distinction of being the most read book in history!  Many thousands of people find their lives more meaningful because of the message contained within the Bible.  People in all parts of the world turn to it to find satisfying answers to life's deepest questions and problems.

But the Bible is more than an answer book to turn to when the pressures of life are overwhelming.  It is really a library of books - filled with stories about real people, majestic poetry and songs, direct messages and prophecies, and most clearly of all, the account of God visiting our earth in the person of Jesus Christ.

This particular edition of the Bible is one of the easiest to understand, since it is a thought-for-thought translation.  Instead of translating the original Hebrew and Greek texts word for word, the ideas are expressed here as ordinary people in the late twentieth century would say them, with our idioms, word-pictures, and expressions.

With topical and instructional helps to aid your understanding, "The Book" may be your greatest opportunity to read and understand the Bible.  For despite all the copies of the Bible in print, it is probably one of the most unread books in our possession today.

Therefore, we challenge you.  Read "The Book" - it could be the most important and life-changing step you will ever take.
