To read and understand the Bible, specifically the Old Testament, is a daunting challenge for most Catholics. Jim Campbell's The Stories of the Old Testament turns this otherwise intimidating task into an eminently achievable and highly enjoyable journey.
Campbell gently leads readers through the central texts, essential stories, and major figures of the Old Testament in 100 carefully selected readings, each designed to be completed in just one sitting. He provides a guide for each reading, and, throughout the book, dozens of short supplemental essays supply the background and commentary needed to properly understand the Bible from Genesis to Malachi.
Jim Campbell, father of two children and grandfather of six, is a religious educator and author. He is the general editor of the Harper’s New American Bible Study Program and is the coauthor of the Finding God religious education program, published by Loyola Press. He has three post-graduate degrees, including masters degrees in theology and history, and a doctorate in Ministry in Christian Education from the Aquinas Institute of Theology. He is the staff theologian at Loyola Press.
