Just
about every human alive has heard of the Bible. Nearly everyone knows
it is the main Christian scripture, and that more books of the Bible
have been printed throughout the ages than any other. But what is the
Bible? What is it for? How is it used? What is its history? I hope the

ing to those who are new and just starting
out in Christianity, but I hope this will also prove useful to old
hands. After all, we can sometimes be so close that we miss things!
