A little gem

A CHRISTIAN'S POCKET GUIDE TO LOVING
THE OLD TESTAMENT

One Book, One God, One Story
By Alec Motyer
Christian Focus. 144 pages. £4.99
ISBN 978 1 781 915 806

Someone who has spent a lifetime studying the Old Testament is well worth listening to, but even more so when that person is not only steeped in knowledge but is first and foremost a godly teacher whose overwhelming love of God shines through on every page.

This little book is an absolute gem. Each chapter, although short, is packed with wisdom and truth, revealing how God is made known through Scripture. Don't let the length of the chapters deceive you; this is a book that is to be read slowly, savoured and inwardly meditated on.
