The Bible is a big and confusing and heavy-going book, even for veteran Christians, let alone complete newcomers.

The Bite-size Bible gives people the opportunity to read the real Bible text without having to agonise over which parts they ought to be reading first.

Short introductions to passages give the context and fill in any gaps, and the additional information, cross references and thematic links help to introduce the rest of the Bible.

It’s perfect for reading a passage a day, or whole chunks at a time, to give a real sense of the Bible as a whole without getting stuck on the more difficult or dull bits.

Includes references to works of art and music inspired by particular stories.
