The Kingdom of God - By: L. Davidson, 28 Jan 2008
"God's Big Picture" traces the storyline of the Bible & reveals how all of it's different parts fit together into one unifying whole. The book takes the reader from the Creationin Genesis to the New Heaven & New Earthin Revelation & demonstrates how all the bitsin between are all discrete yet coherent parts of God's overall plan to undo the effects of the Fall & to destroy evil forever.I think that this book will be of assistance to any reader who is studying the Bible & may be struggling to make sense of some or all of it; "God's Big Picture" will undoubtedly help to make things clearer.The book is easy to read & is concise , however it does cover similar ground to & share common themes with one of the author's other books ,"Turning Points".

Brilliant Bible overview - By: Mr. Alastair Gooderham, 06 Apr 2005
Vaughan Roberts Bible overview is very helpfulin getting the big picture of the theme of kingdom throughout the Bible. The eight chapters work through the books of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation using Goldsworthy's God's peoplein God's place under God's rule. At the end of each chapter there is a helpful summary table with the progression from Eden to the New Heaven & the New Earth. The book is scholarly without being difficult to read & provides an excellent introduction to God's Big Picture. Use of the accompanying study material will benefit the readerin being able to delve deeper into the Bible to examine each theme.
In short an excellent big picture of God's plan & its working outin history. I have read it & will keep it to continually refer to again & use with individuals, small groups &in teaching larger groups.
