A Guide to Meeting God in Scripture: Insight from the Great Adventure

by Jeff Cavins, Sarah Chrystmyer, Sonja Corbitt

“You may have decided to download this e-book for one of many reasons. Maybe you want to make the Bible a more integral part of your life. Maybe you want to meet God in Sacred Scripture, but just don’t know how. Or maybe you’re looking for a way to answer your friends, relatives, and coworkers who say Catholics know close to nothing about the word of God.
Whatever the case, this e-book is here to encourage, inform, and inspire you to put that Bible of yours to good use. As Catholics, we may hear readings from Scripture every Sunday during Mass, but that doesn’t mean we know it well. This e-book can help you find the hidden wonders within the Sunday Readings, and become filled with anticipation every time you pick up God’s Word for the new beautiful truths God will reveal to you.

About the author

After twelve years as a Protestant pastor, Jeff returned to the Catholic Church under the guidance of Bishop Paul Dudley. His conversion story, one of the best known and inspiring stories of its kind, is chronicled in the best-selling book, My Life on the Rock.

Over the past several decades, Jeff has dedicated his life to developing The Great Adventure: A Journey through the Bible, a practical, interactive program that helps people read the “big picture” of God’s plan in Sacred Scripture and understand its meaning for their lives. The Great Adventure presents the entire sweep of the Bible in a way that is easy to understand and genuinely fun. Its unique Bible Timeline learning system has revolutionized Catholic Bible Study for hundreds of thousands of Catholics since 1995.

Jeff received his MA in Theology from Franciscan University of Steubenville.

[Margarita · Rating 5 out of 5]

This e-book, though short, was excellently prepared and presented. Reading commentaries from each of the contributing authors was sincerely inspirational. I have taken some workshops from Jeff Cavins and this reading expanded nicely the growth I have thus far achieved. I say "short e-book" because I was disappointed the experience had come to an end. I truly would have read five times the length. Thank you.
