The True Story of the Whole World: Finding Your Place in the Biblical Drama (Revised)

“What a shockingly bold title, The True Story of the Whole World, and it lives up to every word. This book masterfully synthesizes the biblical narrative without sacrificing important exegetical details. It prompts readers to sit back in awe of the history of redemption while also compelling them to get on with Jesus's kingdom mission. Its predecessor, The Drama of Scripture, was required reading for all our church's interns and residents. I am now thrilled to recommend this more accessible version to our whole church.”

“I know of no book that is more important to our current and emerging times than The True Story of the Whole World. This book is accessible and tremendously impactful. In a world of competing ideologies and cultural division, Goheen and Bartholomew lay out the beauty and substance of the biblical story. These two teachers have immersed me and so many others in the world-altering story of Jesus Christ. Their book presents a breadth of biblical wisdom that helps us make sense of why the modern church is anemic in its calling to be the light of the world. I recommend The True Story of the Whole World to anyone who desires wisdom. Read and apply this book to your lives and ministries.”
