Abstract: A new commentary for today&#x2019;s world, The Story of God Bible Commentary explains and illuminates each passage of Scripture in light of the Bible&#x2019;s grand story. The first commentary series to do so, SGBC offers a clear and compelling exposition of biblical texts, guiding everyday readers in how to creatively and faithfully live out the Bible in their own contexts. Its story-centric approach is ideal for pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and laypeople alike. Three easy-to-use sections designed to help readers live out God&#x2019;s story: LISTEN to the story: Includes complete NIV text with references to other texts at work in each passage, encouraging the reader to hear it within the Bible's grand story; EXPLAIN the story: Explores and illuminates each text as embedded in its canonical and historical setting; LIVE the story: Reflects on how each text can be lived today and includes contemporary stories and illustrations to aid preachers, teachers, and students.--Publisher.
