About
Why is it vitally important that we come to understand the words and message of the Bible? Is it possible to see the Bible as a single unified book? What is the purpose of the Old Testament - and is it even relevant today? What about the portions of the Bible that are difficult to understand?
Discovering the Bible provides compelling answers to these crucial questions and so much more. It serves as a valued guide and companion on a memorable journey through the full panorama of Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation. It demonstrates how the Bible is a single unified story about Jesus Christ and His astounding plan to redeem mankind. Understanding the Bible's message is indispensable because it contains every word that God deliberately chose for us to have in this age. It reveals all we need to know to come to Jesus in faith, to love Him completely, and to trust Him fully.
Discovering the Bible has been published in seven languages and is designed for individual study, Bible study groups, and churches. In this Second Edition, the unfolding plan of redemption has been made more explicit and many new insights and applications have been added throughout.
Gordon Addington was both a medical doctor and lifelong student of the Bible. Prior to attending medical school, he served on staff with Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship, where teaching students how to study the Bible was a prominent part of his ministry. Throughout their sixty-one years of marriage, Gordon and his wife Bonnie regularly led Bible studies in their home and neighborhood. Two of those Bible studies developed into vibrant evangelical churches. In addition to his medical degrees, Gordon earned BDiv and DMin degrees from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.
