Book Description
A highly informative yet fun approach to understanding the world's all-time best-selling book It's pretty hard to build a house if you don't know how to read a blueprint. In the same way, it's difficult to develop your faith if you don't know how to read the Bible—or are reluctant even to open it. In The Bible Blueprint, best-selling author and popular speaker Joe Paprocki cleverly uses a blueprint metaphor to help Catholics gain a solid understanding of the structure and organization of the Bible, and to help them build confidence in navigating its pages. Among other topics, Paprocki covers the different genres of biblical writing, key figures in biblical history, and the methods Catholics rely on to interpret the Bible. Readers are also shown how to consult commentaries, concordances, and other valuable tools of Bible study to deepen their understanding of God's Word. Witty cartoons, sidebars, and quizzes throughout the book keep the tone fun and engaging; eight perforated Bible bookmarks are bound into the book. For the large number of Catholics who have never felt comfortable with the Scriptures, and for any Catholic new to the faith, The Bible Blueprint serves as an effective, nonthreatening introduction to God's Word, as well as a gateway to a deeper relationship with Christ.

Book Description
Have you ever wanted to read the Bible, but found it intimidating? Have you ever read parts or all of the Bible, but come away more confused than ever? Does it seem like there are contradictions in the Bible? Why is there an Old Testament and a New Testament? Does the Old Testament even matter to Christians today? How do the sixty-six books of the Bible fit together? Is there an overarching theme? If you have asked yourself any of these questions, or others, you are not alone. The Bible Blueprint divides the entire Bible chronologically into six easy to read parts. It provides a basic understanding of Scripture as a complete story that links all the various books together. It gives an overview of each book, touching on highlights and some of the amazing and significant events in each, without the reader getting bogged down in the more difficult sections. There is no substitute for the actual Bible-it is not only fascinating, it is the life-giving, life-saving, life-transforming Word of God-so The Bible Blueprint is not a replacement for the Bible, but it will whet your appetite to dig deeper into God's Book for yourself while giving you the confidence to do so!

Book Description
“God’s Blueprint of the Ages” developed as lesson plans through several years of Bible study and sermon preparation. To show a visual presentation of Biblical Chronology a graphic chart was drawn, step-by-step, that showed how God worked with His created earth from eternity past to eternity future. Various time periods, called “ages” or “dispensations” is shown graphically as a timeline. How Satan tried unsuccessfully to thwart God’s plan throughout history is also presented. Old Testament prophecy and New Testament Grace is expanded within the chapters that reference and explain the symbols on the chart. Many references to the Word of God are noted within each chapter to verify each explanation.
