Unclutter You Understanding of the Old Testament

Does your knowledge of the Old Testament feel like a grab bag of people, books, events and ideas? How many times have you resolved to really understand the OT? To finally make sense of it?

Perhaps you are suffering from what Sandra Richter calls the "dysfunctional closet syndrome." If so, she has a solution. Like a home-organizing expert, Richter comes in and helps you straighten out your cluttered closet. In The Epic of Eden, Richter

  • Gives you hangers for facts, a timeline to put them on, and handy containers for the clutter on the floor;
  • Fills out your wardrobe of knowledge with exciting new facts and new perspectives; and
  • Puts the whole thing in usable order-a history of God's redeeming grace, a story that runs from the Eden of the Garden to the garden of the New Jerusalem.

Whether you are a frustrated do-it-yourselfer or a beginning student enrolled in a course, this book will organize your understanding of the Old Testament and renew your enthusiasm for studying the Bible as a whole.
