The Bible at a Glance is basically a crash course on the Bible itself, from the very simple (the order of the books) to the more in-depth (what was the culture of ancient Israel like?). Extensive timelines and maps provide historical, cultural and geographic context to biblical narrative, while brief guides to Bible study and where to find famous verses help the reader investigate on their own. There's even a chapter on the basics of discipleship and what to do to improve your relationship with Christ. Finally, a guide to several translations helps students understand the strengths and weaknesses of each one while helping them determine which one they should use.
