Sinossi

Invitation to the New Testament contains careful explanations to bring readers into the world of contemporary biblical scholarship with language that is both inviting and accessible. Intended to give readers an appreciation for what compelled the early Church to compile the New Testament as we know it, this book covers the four Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, the various Letters, and concludes with the Book of Revelation. Each chapter begins with a personal anecdote to draw in readers, includes an investigation of the origins of a particular part of the Christian Scriptures, and moves into an enlightening discussion that illuminates the major themes and messages of that work. Each chapter also concludes with discussion questions for personal reflection or group use. This book is designed primarily for readers wishing to strengthen their relationship with Jesus. Catholics and others looking to update their understanding of the New Testament and parents who want to teach their children the current Catholic approach to the Bible will find it extremely helpful. High school and college religion teachers will also welcome this book.
