Perfect study book

I love this book. It really organizes the bible in a way you can teach things to your kids. Heck! It helped me to learn! It is a must have in your library of christian books.

Taking 99% of the population to a whole new level

This book is outstanding. While I don't know the author personally, he certainly knows how to communicate to me. I like the depth, relevance, history, and life the Bible represents in my life. As a believer in Jesus Christ, the Bible is God's handbook for me on how to live. What I like so much about The MAP is that it serves as an everyman's tool for reading and better understanding the Bible. Well done Nick Page. May God continue to bless you and your family.

Good Overview of the Bible

This book is a good way for anybody who wants to learn about the bible. His writing style is casual and he tries to be funny, which he sometimes accomplishes. This is not a textbook or a heady in-depth analysis of the Bible. He presents the bible in a way that I believe most readers will be able to understand easily.

Solid, basic overview of the Bible

If you are looking for a good Bible Study that doesn't require a Master's degree just to follow along then you won't be disappointed with The MAP. Each Bible book has a quick guide that includes information on author, type of book, purpose, and primary point. Throughout the book are lots of notes, maps, puzzling verses, and details on government and customs. One of the really nice features are the multiple boxes labeled viewpoints. These contain information on different interpretations for particular passages. This is one of the most complete and accessible study sources for the average Bible student. While it is not a Bible in itself, it is designed to be used in conjunction with your Bible. The MAP: Making the Bible Meaningful, Accessible, Practical is a very highly recommended read for Bible students who seek a solid overview and understanding of the books of the Bible and how each of the stories relates to the other. It is not a deep hermeneutic treatise with detailed word studies, but a solid book that truly makes the Bible meaningful, accessible, and practical for everyone.
