The Drama of Scripture Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story, 3rd ed. Craig G. Bartholomew and Michael W. Goheen This popular textbook surveys the grand narrative of the Bible, demonstrating how the biblical story forms the foundation of a Christian worldview. The third edition has been updated and revised throughout. “Bartholomew and Goheen’s Drama of Scripture brought the full story of God into view in new and fresh ways for me as a student. Now as both a professor and pastor I recommend and reference it weekly. It is my honor to commend the third edition of this great work.” —BENJAMIN T. QUINN, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and the College at Southeastern “Bartholomew and Goheen have somehow managed to make rigorous scholarship deeply engaging, incredibly accessible, and imminently practical. Churches, pastors, Sunday schools, college classrooms, home groups, and more will all find in these pages the kind of guidance they need to hear Scripture’s invitation to take our place within God’s cosmic rescue plan.” —MICHAEL RHODES, Carey Baptist College PRAISE FOR PREVIOUS EDITIONS “I am delighted to see solid scholarship made easily accessible in this splendid fashion.” —N. T. WRIGHT, University of St. Andrews; former bishop of Durham “An intelligent, engaging overview of the narrative of Scripture in six acts. Perfect for college students or adult Bible study groups.” —CHRISTOPHER SEITZ, Wycliffe College, University of Toronto “[This volume] will serve well in introductory level Bible courses and may serve equally well in basic courses in hermeneutics. Its easy, nontechnical language will make it a popular text with such students.” —JEFFREY S. LAMP, Review of Biblical Literature “This very user-friendly guide to the Bible as a unified drama spanning both testaments presents a useful overview of many of the key themes in the biblical story. . . . Suitable for advanced high school or college students.” —BARBARA E. BOWE, RSCJ, Catholic Library World “Every once in a while a book comes along that immediately meets a real need. This is one of those books.” —STEPHEN G. DEMPSTER, Canadian Evangelical Review “I enthusiastically recommend this book as a university-level textbook, but all who want to enrich their understanding of the account of God’s redemptive plan will benefit from reading it.” —TREMPER LONGMAN III, Westmont College
