—KENNETH BERDING, professor of New Testament, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University“Some teachers of the Bible draw you into the text, help you interpret it faithfully, and guide you into understanding how seemingly disparate biblical texts fit together. Other teachers focus on applying the Bible to real people’s real lives. In Living God’s Word, master teachers Scott Duvall and Danny Hays do both well. Living God’s Word will help you grasp how the Bible coheres and will faithfully lead you into how to connect your own life story to the Great Story of Scripture.” | —MADISON N. PIERCE, assistant professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School“Duvall and Hays offer students, lay people, and their teachers a concise, yet rich introduction to God’s story. Living God’s Story finds a balance between simplicity and beauty. It is a great resource for the classroom and the Church.” | —DAVID S. DOCKERY, president, International Alliance for Christian Education and distinguished professor of theology, Southwestern Seminary“In this wonderful book, Scott Duvall and Danny Hays have marvelously set forth the overarching story of Scripture as a hermeneutical guide and framework for developing a Christian world and life view. The engaging style and well-designed approach of Living God's Word make this an ideal introduction to the meaning of Scripture. Moreover, readers will be able to see and understand how their lives fit into what God has done and is doing in the world. What a joyful privilege to recommend this excellent work!” | —MATTHEW S. HARMON, professor of New Testament studies, Grace College and Theological Seminary“Since the first edition, Living God's Word has helped countless people understand the biblical story from Genesis to Revelation and how their lives fit into that story. Now in this second edition, Duvall and Hays have made a great resource even better. Teachers and professors will find abundant additional resources (now including a workbook!) that will help their students engage the Bible in fresh and relevant ways. These enhancements and more only solidify Living God's Word as the premiere textbook for helping students understand and live out their place within God's redemptive plan.” |
