Giving several examples from the Scriptures, Nick Roark and Robert Cline offer an exceptional tool to help preachers and believers understand the great story of the Bible in light of the central purpose of each text, namely - say Jesus Christ! »

“True scripture preaching and teaching highlights a particular passage, but it also allows you to step back and capture the full storyline of the Bible. Nick Roark and Robert Cline show us that biblical theology is essential for the Church, for preaching, and for life in general. They examine all of the scriptures and show us some common mistakes. This book is a very useful resource for pastors, teachers, and Christians in general. "

It is in a very clear and straightforward manner that Roark and Cline explain how biblical theology helps the Church and pastors understand and proclaim the great history of the scriptures. »
- AUGUSTUS LOPES, pastor at First Presbyterian Church, Goiânia, Brazil
“Incredible! This concise book is a veritable compendium of words of wisdom that help grasp God's biblical scenario and faithfully teach the Word! Its authors have done us a great service by distilling deep biblical concepts and making them simple, user-friendly and communicable. This is the kind of book you'll want to give to a Sunday school teacher, someone aspiring to ministry, or a candidate for the mission field. In a desire to do well, some teachers of the Word take the easy way of hastily using a passage to give a "practical lesson." But they miss the bigger picture, the glorious centerpiece therein. This wonderful tool that keeps me on track as a missionary and helps me teach new believers how to study and share the Word, should be translated into many languages! »
- DAVID L. FRAZIER, Managing Director at Equipping Servants International; author of Mission Smart
“This brief book explains important theological concepts in a clear, faithful, and straightforward manner. It is perfect for people in the Church who, although they want to adopt a sound theology and understand the biblical concepts necessary to teach the gospel well, find that deep brain work is too much of a challenge. This is a great resource and I look forward to recommending it to our Women's Ministry team. »

He shows them how to understand a particular Bible passage, while always keeping in mind the big picture that Christ is the ultimate goal of all scripture.

- NDAGI JOB GOSHI, part-time, international church planter

If you are looking for a tool that explains and applies biblical theology well, this book is for you. It is scriptural, well-written, easy to understand, practical, concise without being superficial, informative, and extremely useful for preaching and pastoral ministry.

In addition, it will help all Christians to see, celebrate and communicate the gospel better. »

It is a reliable journey on the road to Emmaus, during which the discovery of the presence of Christ throughout the Bible rejoices the heart. »

You will understand why by reading their book! Perhaps the phrase biblical theology gives you the impression that this is a manual intended for Bible schools or pastoral training, but it is rather a must-have for every Christian, since we are all intended to be stewards of the Church of Christ. »
