Hard to follow/understand, maybe just me. (

Decent introduction to biblical theology. Basically, it is an overview of the biblical storyline. Introduces themes and motifs satisfactorily. There are several points which seem to be contrived and unnecessary. If aimed towards a lay audience, some of these parts can be removed (i.e. the discussion of the original composition dates of the creation account) since it may lead to confusion to those unfamiliar with the debates.

Along with Goldsworthy, the affirmation that both expositors and hearers should have a big-picture understanding of the Bible can be made. However, for this reviewer, The Greatness of the Kingdom by Alva J. McClain, which begins at Genesis 1 and works forward and takes the OT prophecies literally, is a better starting point for both congregants than According to Plan.

Epigraph

Dedication

First words

[Preface] A while ago an acquaintance of mine urged me to write a biblial theology for ordinary Christians.

[Introduction] This guide is written for those who have not had any formal theological education.

There is nothing like feeling that if something is enough of a problem to you, you become motivated to read about it.
