The people of the Bible - and the God they show us.
Great Characters of Scripture gathers seventy-seven character studies drawn straight from the text of Scripture, arranged in ten groups: Patriarchs, Prophets, Priests, Kings, Biblical Writers, Apostles, Judges and Deliverers, Women of Faith, Faithful Servants - and the Warnings, the lives that show where disobedience leads.
From Abraham the father of the faithful to David the man after God's own heart, from Ruth and Esther to Paul the apostle to the Gentiles, each study walks through a life's story with Scripture doing the teaching. Every study is built the same way, with fourteen sections that move from the person's story to what the church has taught about them, the confession's testimony, and fuel for the teacher's own preparation.
Written from a historic Baptist perspective, for anyone who wants to know the people of the Bible - and the God they reveal.
