In this sweeping overview of the Bible, Elyse Fitzpatrick reveals how each section - the Law, history, poetry, and epistles - points to God's eternal love for you and the good news of redemption through Christ.

But first he took her through a trial so debilitating it almost destroyed what little faith she had. He let her go deaf.
