The God Who Is There
Sintesi dell'editore
It can no longer be assumed that most people - or even most Christians - have a basic understanding of the Bible. Many don’t know the difference between the Old and New Testament, and even the more well-known biblical figures are often misunderstood. It is getting harder to talk about Jesus accurately and compellingly because listeners have no proper context with which to understand God’s story of redemption. In this basic introduction to faith, D. A. Carson takes seekers, new Christians, and small groups through the big story of scripture. He helps listeners to know what they believe and why they believe it. The companion leader’s guide helps evangelistic study groups, small groups, and Sunday school classes make the best use of this book in group settings.
D. A. Carson is research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is the author or editor of more than 40 books and is one of the leaders of the Gospel Coalition.

I will listen to this one again
This book is insightful and thought provoking. It is a book worthy of my resources of time and money. It is very interesting and beneficial to listen to. Also it was excellently narrated. I'm very selective and discerning so this short review is saying a lot.

Great intro to the biblical storyline
D.A. Carson, as one might expect, does a wonderful job of both presenting the storyline of the Bible as a whole, but also doing so in a winsome and thoroughly understandable manner. This book is for both those who want a clear outline of the Bible, but also for those who are curious about what the Bible is all about.

Wonderful Book! Outstanding!
What a great survey of Biblical teaching and a coincise, yet thorough theological introduction. I would certainly recommend to new Christians - and more seasoned ones would definitely benefit from Wilson's teaching.

Awesome read
This an evangelistic book that will give the unrepentant sinner a terrific understanding of the God who desires to save and is here. This book as well has been a wonderful refresher course concerning the magnitude of the God who has saved.

Like reading a text book
Listening to this book took me back to sitting in a collage lecture. You are listening to someone give their idea of what something means with no emotion at all and some of the interpretations seemed hard to swallow even if he did talk like he believed any of it.

God’s Plan from Genesis to Revelation
The author has written a clear yet profound exposition of the whole Bible. He sees the OT and NT as one continuous story of God’s plan of redemption for fallen humanity—the Redeemer promised in the Old and the Redeemer who came in the New. The Gospel is proclaimed throughout. The ultimate goal of history is the glory of God. All comes together in Revelation where the redeemed creation enjoys God forever in the New Heaven and New Earth.
This is a valuable resource for both new and mature believers.
I really appreciated the narrator. His deep voice was very pleasing. His reading style kept me focused.

The God Who IS There
I loved this book! Narrator is great! It gives an understanding to the knowledge of scripture in a simple way for a believer or a sceptic to conceptualize the God who IS there, in sovergn reign.

Great comprehensive overview
Five stars. Great comprehensive overview of the Bible written with seekers and newcomers to the Bible in mind.
However, I was alarmed that the author didn't conclude the book with applicable next steps for someone who is ready to invite "the God who is there" into their life as Lord and Savior. Or at least where to go from here?
A personal and perhaps pastoral invitation to the reader would have been an equipping conclusion to the book.
