The World Behind the Word

The Bible was not written in a vacuum.

Behind every passage are real people, real places, and real events. The World Behind the Word explores the historical and cultural world of Scripture so readers can better understand God's Word and apply its timeless truths today.

Through historical insights, translation reflections, word studies, and guided journaling, this book helps bring Scripture to life.

This book grew out of my own search to understand not only what Scripture says, but the people who first heard it.
