Endorsement from Bishop Sudarshana Devadhar

This excellent tool can turn every Bible reader into a Bible teacher

"This is an invaluable gift to the Church of Jesus Christ!

"How do we bring the Bible to seekers in our de-churched culture? One answer is Exploring the Bible: The Dickinson Series. Stimulating, challenging, and inspirational, Exploring the Bible prepares disciples of Jesus Christ to answer questions from those who know little or nothing about the Bible. I wish I'd had this series in my library when I started my pastoral ministry nearly 40 years ago.
