The Drama of Scripture: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story

The story of the Bible and its account of God's action in the world give meaning to our lives and provide us with the foundation for our actions. The Drama of Scripture is an introduction to the basic story line and theology of the Bible. In considering the biblical story, the authors emphasize the unity of the whole, viewing the Bible as a drama in six acts--creation, sin, Israel, Christ, church, and new creation. Two overarching themes tie the biblical story together--covenant in the Old Testament and kingdom in the New Testament. Throughout, the authors suggest, God is revealed through the story and calls us to participate in his drama. more

4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-20-2009; The Drama of Scripture; I enjoyed this book and am currently using it my Biblical Theology course at seminary. It builds largely off N.T.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-19-2009; Solid book on biblical theology; The Drama of Scripture is a solid book on biblical theology that traces the main themes of Covenant and Kingdom throughout Scripture.

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Sep-25-2008; Covenant and Kingdom? What about Covenant and Christ?; The book begins by claiming to tell the "biblical story of redemption as a unified, coherent narrative of God's ongoing work within his kingdom" (pg 11). Telling the story of the Bible as such requires unifying themes from which each...; read full review | report as inappropriate
