Excellent resource for everyone - from newcomers to the faith to those who have read the bible for years. An excellent devotion or small group study although I have to say that it took me 2 years to complete as I have had other studies that have superceded my readings.

100 day reading through the Bible with explanations for 20 sections of 5 readings and devotionals each. Questions are don't understand parts of the Bible or how all the books tie together into one main theme? This book can help.
