This book reorganizes the New Testament into a single good-news account, while removing the difficult religious terminology. It also sorts the letters' doctrine into thematic summaries. Both sophisticated and unsophisticated readers may appreciate this straightforward, organized, accessible, and thematic account of the good news of our one great rescuer.
