Synopsis
Most people see the Bible as a collection of short stories, but it is much, much more: ? We know that the wise men came to visit Jesus, but what was the meaning behind their visit We've heard that Jesus calmed a storm, but what does that story really reveal We know the story of Joseph and his amazing, colorful coat-but what is the underlying message of his story We've read of Jonah being swallowed by a whale, but what hidden meaning swims underneath the surface of this familiar story?Yes, the Bible contains some great stories, but it is not a storybook. Every story in the Bible has a deeper meaning and message that is hidden to many. Messages from God helps you decode and discover deeper meaning behind the classic stories you've grown up hearing. And just when most readers think they've got the Bible figured out, they will be surprised to find that each Bible story contributes to a singular storyline that the original writers of the Bible wanted you to discover for yourself: The message and mission of God.
