READING BETWEEN THE LINES
Old Testament Daily Readings
By Glen Scrivener
10 Publishing. 481 pages. £14.99
ISBN 978 1 912 373 567

On Day 1, Scrivener writes that, surely, the meaning of our lives is ‘to discover, to enjoy and to share the God who is love’. This book is a helpful resource in that task.
