A Newcomer's Guide to the Bible serves thousands of readers whom other introductions overlook. The typical guide to the Bible aims at readers who already know many Biblical terms and events. But half of our population comes to adulthood without even cursory knowledge of the Bible. In many cases, the most common Biblical terms are foreign to them.

When these adults develop an interest in Christianity, as millions of them do, they find that the average Bible class is "over their heads." They also discover that basic reference materials about the Bible may exceed their level of understanding.

A Newcomer's Guide to the Bible was written for just these people. In fact, several who reviewed the manuscript initially were exploring the Bible for the first time. They quickly discovered that the Guide presents the themes and structure of the Bible in a style that is easy to read and simple to grasp.

For others, who already know much about the Bible, the Newcomer's Guide serves as a great refresher study. Richly illustrated with charts and maps, it provides a full, comprehensive picture of the Bible's unfolding themes, weaving them together into a seamless whole.

Almost two million copies of A Newcomer's Guide to the Bible are in circulation in more than a dozen languages. And the Guide has been adopted as a textbook in public schools of Russia and Ukraine.
