Homeschool Crew Review: Books of the Bible At-a-Glance

Have you ever wanted to learn more about the books of the Bible?  We recently received a PDF download of Books of the Bible At-a-Glance from Teach Sunday School to use and review that will help you do just that.

 Books of the Bible At-a-Glance is a 74 page PDF download that you can load onto a computer or other electronic device such a a tablet.  You can study it from the screen or choose to print it out.  It is in color, but you could print it on a black and white printer to make it less expensive to print.  It is arranged in order of the Bible starting with the Old Testament.  Every book has information listed on a single sheet of paper.  Each book contains information such as:

Book Title

Order in the Bible (which book number it is)


Claim to Fame (what is unique or special about the book)

Author (if known)

Date (approximate)


Time Period (for the Old Testament and first few books of the New Testament)

Famous Stories ( such as the Tower of Babel) or Problems or Issues this Book is Addressing  (New Testament)


Most Famous Verses (chosen from a website of the most searched for books of the Bible in that book)


Important Points About This Book (overall message or outline of events)


 
Books of the Bible At-a-Glance is a great resource for home study or small groups.  You could use this resource to read over when beginning a study of a particular book of the Bible.  You could use it to read over before beginning your Bible lesson.  If your Sunday School lessons are coming from the Book of Matthew it would be helpful to read over the page on Matthew before beginning.  It also is a great resource just for learning all of the books in the Bible and helping to put those books into perspective chronologically.  You could also memorize the verses listed for each book. It is very easy to skip over some of the lesser known books of the Bible especially in a Sunday School setting where the same familiar stories are taught multiple times.  Books of the Bible At-a-Glance would be a great reference to help memorize the order of the books and some information about each book.  That is how we are using it in our home, as a Books of the Bible study. 

I think the information is presented in an easy to read and remember format.  I love that each book fits onto one page making it easy to print and bind if you wish.  I also love the inclusion of the most famous verses from that book.

Many Bibles have a lot of this information included as an introduction to the book, but Books of the Bible At-a-Glance is a great reference tool that keeps all of the information in one place.

You can purchase Books of the Bible At-a-Glance for $9 until 250 copies are sold then the price goes to $19.  Copyright allows for making copies for your home or church and Teach Sunday School offers a 60 day money back guarantee.
