A guide for middle grade students (pre-teen through confirmation) goes beyond literal words to mine the true riches of God's message. The book answers questions, such as: 

  • What is the Bible?
  • How did the books of the Bible come to be written?
  • What are some of the more commonly used words and what do they mean?
  • How do cultures then compare to now?
  • Why is it important?

Graphical representations aid learning: 

  • Maps with key locations of the time period
  • Table of books of the Bible
  • Meaning of symbols, numbers, and places found throughout the Bible
  • Timelines
  • References to the Catechism of the Catholic Church
