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.

"The Drama of Scripture" is a must-read for all Christians. Written in a thoroughly engaging and easy-to-read style, it takes its readers through the Bible through the lens of it being one story, rather than the fragmented way in which it is so often viewed in popular circles. This hermeneutic schema will, or should, drastically transform the way we view scripture, and the way in which we interpret it. Bartholomew and Goheen have done the Church a wonderful service in writing this book.
