Many Bible readers have difficulty fitting everything together. Did Moses or David came first? What was the ``captivity'' all about? When did Jesus say he would return to earth?

This course is for people who have begun to read their Bibles, and are trying to fit the major people and events into the overall Bible story. The Bible message is heard more loudly and clearly if we understand the overall story of the Bible.
