Catholic Introduction to the Bible Old Testament
commentary
How many times have you wanted to convey to someone the joy and excitement of the basic gospel messagebut stumbled in the process? Here is a book that explains the kerygmathe proclamation of the gospelin a simple way. Dr. Bergsma, a professor at Franciscan University and noted biblical scholar, uses both words and illustrations to tell the story of the Bible. In this short book, he brings the gospel to life for believers and nonbelievers alike.
John Bergsma brings to his theology a combination of academic expertise, pastoral wisdom, and unique playfulness. Bible Basics for Catholics is based on Bergsma's popular Introduction to Theology course at Steubenville. As a teacher, Bergsma has an uncanny ability to make complex ideas understandable and faith-inspiring while staying true to both Catholic teaching and biblical scholarship. Readers will begin to see the Christian understanding of salvation by walking through the Old Testament, going through the great stories of Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, the great kings and prophets of Israel, and culminating in the person and work of Jesus Christ.… (mere)
In this short and easy-to-read book, Dr. John Bergsma presents the Book of Psalms as not just a random collection of religious poetry, but rather a book with a structure that outlines the major milestones in salvation history. He also identifies five psalms from each section of the larger book that are important to know, and explains why they are important. Especially useful are the tips for daily reading/praying the psalms. A great introduction—and not just for Catholics.
