Why do good people suffer? Why is God sometimes silent? Does God care about my dreams? In this volume of The Easy Bible(r), you will explore the two most ancient books of the Bible, and read about the wedding night scam, the man who wrestled with God, the long-distance bride, the slave prisoner who became ruler of a nation, the wife who was mistakenly added to the king's harem, the man who bargained with God, and, most importantly, the God who showed up. These aren't pretty little stories. Instead, we cover rough territory: rape, murder, war and disaster. But if you've ever suffered and wondered why, if you've ever felt like nobody understands, if you've ever ventured out into uncharted territory, this book is for you. See how God rebuilds shattered lives and makes fractured families whole. The Easy Bible(r) is your resource for exploring and sharing the Christian faith. Designed for first-time Bible readers, appropriate for seasoned pros-you'll find this book to be easy to read, but never watered down, and filled with encouragement and guidance that works in real life. In Volumes One and Two of The Easy Bible(r) we looked at the life of Jesus ending with His resurrection from the dead and His instructions to His followers. We also looked briefly at creation and the beginning of human history. In Volume Three we pick up the story and trace our roots back to the very beginning. Explore the most trusted path of spiritual growth known to humanity: the Bible. Inside you'll find the Bible available in a whole new way, in bite-sized pieces, freshly paraphrased, with notes of explanation, making this the perfect read for someone with no previous Bible experience. We've added words of encouragement and created conversation starting questions for you and a friend to explore together. Explore ... enjoy ... share ... grow. Experience God on a whole new level.

He loves Jesus, and he lives the Bible." Israel Haas, Church Planter, Pastor, PhD Student in Hebrew Studies "I like The Easy Bible(r) because it gives me a daily reading plan.
