Excellent abbreviated survey of the story that scripture has to tell us., Jan 5 2007
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creation to Revelation: A Brief Account of the Biblical Story (Paperback)
Pastor emeritus James O. Chatham presents Creation to Revelation: A Brief Account oh the Biblical Story, a condensed guide to biblical scripture from Genesis to Revelation. Spelling out the narrative of the Bible in layman's language across twenty-six short segments, Creation to Revelation is meant not to replace the Bible, but to entice the reader to read the Bible with a fuller understanding of what is happening, and improve his or her comprehension of it for the sake of biblical studies and personal understanding of its message. Sample questions for deliberation at the close of each chapter round out this excellent abbreviated survey of the story that scripture has to tell us.

This review is from: Creation to Revelation: A Brief Account of the Biblical Story (Paperback)
I bought this text to accompany a brief course by the author. Drawing on the geography and history of ancient Israel, James Chatham shows how God speaks to believers through the Bible in strange and sometimes contradictory ways until the arrival of Jesus. Even then, some were expecting that the Messiah would soon establish His Kingdom on earth, but apostles like Paul preached that salvation involved men's souls. The author is a confirmed Christian believer whose written style is easy to read. The book is divided into short, coherent, easily digestible chapters, each followed by a series of discussion topics for those wishing to use the text in a study group.The book works better for confirmed believers than for one trying to decide what to believe. Not an atheist, I am uncomfortable with the label "agnostic," which somehow seems static. I would like to think myself capable of being convinced, hopefully sooner rather than later, but this text speaks more to the heart than to the mind as it progresses: a wonderful goal for many readers, but not quite the historic argument I was seeking at the time. Nevertheless, I am pleased to have purchased and read this book.
