Well we simply can't say that studying the Old Testament is intimidating anymore, not when there is the work of Dr. John Bergsma to help us through the door. "Bible Basics for Catholics: A New Picture of Salvation History" is a wonderful guide to begin the journey, not only for the individual, but also for the entire family. Many of us our visual learners, and bearing that in mind, Dr. Bergsma has transformed what has worked for his classroom into a book that can help us all. It is indeed a unique approach, which seems like a simple presentation, but is so packed with important fundamental elements of Sacred Scripture that you hardly realize that you've mastered the "heavy" things. Instead you come away more aware and deeply appreciative of the "family" history in which we've been given. His love for the Old Testament is apparent, and he passes on new insights to us all. Having been twice voted Faculty of the Year by graduating classes at Franciscan University, he is a popular teacher whose love of scripture inspires his students....and now we can see why! Be sure to visit the fantastic "The Sacred Page" blog he shares with Brant Pitre, and Michael Barber (what a trio!)
