Endorsements:
​
"As August notes in his, What Is the Bible?, many find the Bible complicated, seemingly difficult to understand and follow. What's more, many do not understand the "so what?" of the Bible. If vou are one that doesn't understand how vour life's story fits into God's story, this book will be a spiritually enriching journey. Travel with August as he traces the divine story line from Genesis to Revelation showing how God will destroy evil, restore creation, and dwell with you, his people forever. "
