Addresses confusion about complex biblical issues

You will find answers that deepen your faith and understanding

This insightful book tackles the Bible's toughest questions with honesty.

NICKY GUMBEL - 'This is a great resource for anyone struggling with difficult questions about the Bible'

JUSTIN BRIERLEY - 'An excellent read. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to make sense of Scripture'

GLEN SCRIVENER - 'Andrew Ollerton does an excellent job of exploring the immensity of Scripture as well as facing the critiques head on'

Does the Bible condone warfare and slavery?
Isn't the New Testament's teaching on sex outdated?
Surely there's not a literal heaven and hell?

These are just some of the questions that popular Bible teacher Andrew Ollerton asks as he helps us navigate the most challenging topics in the Bible.

God's Book follows the biblical plotline from Genesis to Revelation and reveals how to make sense of difficult passages by considering them in their original setting. When we understand the creation story in its ancient context, we won't need to choose between science or the Bible. When we appreciate that the conquest of Canaan was a unique moment in history, these passages won't justify violence today.

The Bible's 7 toughest topics
Science versus Creation
Slavery and Old Testament laws
Warfare and violence
Suffering
Miracles and exorcisms
Sex
Heaven, hell and judgement

Andrew concludes each chapter with a letter to a young adult, giving practical advice on each topic. God's Book is for anyone who is spiritually curious and wants to make sense of the Bible, and for Christians who want to share their faith more confidently in today's culture.
