  What actually happens in Acts? What is Hebrews really all about? Who were the Pharisees and what was it like going to church two thousand years ago? Is the New Testament a random collection of letters, or does it have a story line? The New Testament is about Jesus: in its pages we encounter him, learn what he taught and hear his voice speaking. But often when we read it we focus on just a few verses, a chapter, a single book. There is also much to be learned from standing back and looking at the bigger picture, in seeing how the books fit together and relate to each other. Simon Jones takes us through the entire New Testament in just twelve weeks, giving a clear overview of each book and the important themes, with discussion questions for Bible Study groups and background chapters which bring the New Testament world to life.
