The Bible can be intimidating to read. It’s a big book full of smaller books, some of which are narrative, others are poetry, some are prophecies that seem confusing and strange.

The Bible was penned by many different authors and is full of stories, but all the stories and poetry and prophecy are really telling one Big story. It’s what the Bible is all about – from beginning to end, God’s message has been the same.

This is God’s Big Story.
