👫 Book Review 👫

👫 The 30 minute Bible by Craig Bartholomew and Paoge Vanosky

👫 Publication Date - June 22nd 2021

👫 We know about the Bible. We may know some Bible stories, or maybe we've even read large portions for ourselves. But what it's really all about? How do all the different pieces fit together? Without a sense of the big story the Bible is telling, we'll miss out on the good news God has for us. In The 30-Minute Bible, experienced Bible teachers Craig Bartholomew and Paige Vanosky present the story of Scripture in thirty short readings, each designed to take about half an hour. Each includes a passage from the Bible and a short chapter explaining how the passage fits into the Bible's wider narrative. Written in straightforward and clear language, the readings are accompanied by Brother Martin Erspamer's lovely illustrations. Discover the timeless story of the Bible—in thirty minutes a day for thirty days.


👫 Reading the Bible can be a daunting task for many people, myself included! The 30-Minute Bible has condensed the long and complex story that is the Bible into this small book, suitable for Christians and non-Christians alike.

👫 The 30 Minute Bible works through the Word, following six major acts, from creation to the rapture. It comes with charts, diagrams and chronological maps to help provide more background information. It comes with the Bible Verses discussed at the end of the chapter and the authors encourage the reader to continue to look into what is being said for themselves.

👫 It is an interesting book and a quick read.


👫 If you are curious about the Bible, or if you seek answers about life that you have not yet found, then I highly recommend this book.

Thank you for the advanced copy.

I love how this is set out, breaking it down and hopefully enticing a new audience to the bible. This is also ideal for someone to use daily for reflection or night time reading.
I will purchase a copy of this.

Sitting to read the entire Bible can be an intimidating task, whether it be the first time or after a lifetime of reading. The 30 Minute Bible works through the Word, following six major acts, from creation to the rapture. It is an interesting book and a quick read, and would be a great addition to the library of anyone looking to learn more about Christian history and the Christian faith.
