As a librarian, AWANA leader, and homeschool teacher, I appreciate the way this book approaches The Bible. This book is for those who want to get the "big picture" so that book studies and topical studies have a context. The strategies in 30 Days to Understanding the Bible remind me of the reading skills taught in Adler's How to Read a Book. (I recommend both these books for high school students to prepare them for college-level reading.)
Max Anders outlines the structure, history, and major doctrines of the Bible. He covers the territory well, yet keeps within the limits of an intelligent layman. You don't need an M.Div. to improve your Bible understanding and/or teaching skills.
It is great for self-study and also includes a 13-week plan so you can use it in a classroom setting. I am enjoying my free review copy from Propeller/FlyBy promotions. You can buy your own copy or check out the official book website.
