The Bible is widely considered to be the most profound collection of ancient books in all of history, and it includes messages and stories that are still mentioned today in public conversation. But it's long, complicated, hard to read, and not organized in chronological order.

In The Very Short Bible, author Peter Bylsma condenses the essential stories and teachings of the entire Bible into 17 short easy-to-read chapters. He captures the epic stories of the Bible's main characters and themes. Structured in chronological order like a normal book, it also includes historical and geographical details to clarify the context of the stories.

This overview is appropriate for those who want to read the Bible but haven't had the time, for those who already know the Bible but want to read a new and fresh account, and for anybody who wants a better understanding of the most read book of all time.
