• Strong author track record – Samuel Wells is one of the most well-known public voices for Christianity in the UK today. • An accessible, clear and faith-deepening introduction to the message of the Bible as a whole that will address the problem of declining biblical literacy in today's Church.

As a collection of 66 books spanning thousands of years, the Bible can be daunting in size and scope. In The Heart of It All, Samuel Wells simplifies the Bible's complexity and presents the entire sweep of its narrative in eighteen key themes. Although its contents range from history to poetry, law, narrative, letters and even apocalyptic literature, at the Bible's heart are relationships between God, creation, Jesus, the Church, the Spirit and the Kingdom. Samuel Wells argues that this provides a lens through which the whole Bible can be understood. Rooted in the best of contemporary biblical theology and scholarship, The Heart of It All will deepen understanding of the Bible and increase confidence in reading it. It includes questions for reflection, making this an ideal resource for Lent groups as well as for individual reading.
