Description

Are you looking for a great overview of everything you need to know about the Bible?

This book offers some Bible basics as the foundation for discipleship and doctrine. Here you will find an overview of the biblical books, places, and events. We’ll look at the big picture of the Bible by exploring the idea of the covenant. You’ll find some key biblical passages to meditate upon and memorize, as well as prayers from the Bible. You’ll also find some key ideas from the centuries of church history. Together we’ll walk through some basic doctrines in order to have a better grasp on what the Bible teaches. You’ll even find some hymns.

These basics provide a foundation upon which to build a solid faith. In fact, all of us, no matter where we find ourselves in our Christian walk, need these fundamentals. We need to go back to the basics. Repeat. Repeat again.

Stephen J. Nichols, President of Reformation Bible College in Sanford, Florida, covers a wide range of topics, from the different genres found in the Bible to the benefits we can glean from creeds and catechisms; the primary Christian doctrines to how to apply biblical wisdom.
