SEVEN THINGS I WISH CHRISTIANS KNEW ABOUT THE BIBLE

PAPERBACK- ZONDERVAN

Michael Bird answers the most common questions and misconceptions about the Bible

Seven Things I Wish Christians Knew about the Bible is a short and readable introduction to the Bible-its origins, interpretation, truthfulness, and authority.

Bible scholar, prolific author, and Anglican minister Michael Bird helps Christians understand seven important "things" about this unique book:

• how the Bible was put together;
  
  
• what "inspiration" means;
  
  
• how the Bible is true;
  
  
• why the Bible needs to be rooted in history;
  
  
• why literal interpretation is not always the best interpretation;
  
  
• how the Bible gives us knowledge, faith, love, and hope; and
  
  
• how Jesus Christ is the center of the Bible.
  
  

Seven Things presents clear and understandable evangelical account of the Bible's inspiration, canonization, significance, and relevance in a way that is irenic and compelling. It is a must read for any serious Bible reader who desires an informed and mature view of the Bible that will enrich their faith.
