About this listen

The Bible tells a story. The events of the Bible are exciting and awe inspiring, but often the story can get lost among the laws, genealogies, and poetry. Here, Dr. William Marty retells the entire story of the Bible in one accessible, chronological account. All the stories you remember, and many of those you don't, are part of one grand narrative. It's the must-listen story of God's pursuit of you - one you'll want to hear again and again.

Just read your NKJV bible

There are words that are used incorrectly.
An example of this would be the 6 days of creation in Genesis.
The word used for "after the creation" was "Perfect" instead of "Good". While it is perfect, it's foremost good in the sight of the Creator.

While it can be said that this can be a summary of the story of the Bible, IT IS INCOMPLETE without using the right words.

One Biased & Self-Serving Interpretation

I knew before I even started this book that it couldn't possibly be anything more than the author's own biased and self-serving interpretation of the Bible; being willing to bet good money that it would be the American Evangelical Protestant interpretation. And within the first three minutes of the first chapter, my suspicions were confirmed. With (to give only two examples for the sake of brevity,) the serpent in the Garden being declared to be Satan. And before that, the author clarifying that God 'Meant' to say that Adam would die a spiritual death, followed by a much later physical death if he ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge; literally re-writing the text to say what he wanted it to say. So while this book isn't 'Bad' or 'Wrong' in any objective sense of the term, that's literally only because the issues at hand are entirely subjective in every possible sense of the term!

After all, the reason why there are more than 30,000 denominations of Christianity in the U.S. alone is that it's possible to interpret every verse of the Bible in radically different ways. And that isn't even mentioning Judaism, with ancient Rabbis believing that a piece of scripture was 'Dead' if you couldn't glean any new interpretations from it. So while I don't actively dissuade anyone from reading this book, I do beg you all to remember that this is only a single, incredibly narrow and heavily politicised interpretation. And the arrogant conceit that 'Your' interpretation of your sacred text is the only true and correct one is the reason why the history of organised Religion is a history of Genocide.
