Simply Christian – Tom Wright (SPCK, 2006)

Simply Christian
is a superb introduction to the Christian faith. Tom Wright shows how the deepest
longings of humanity—for truth, beauty, justice and relationship—point us ultimately
to Jesus, the one who came to make all things new. He tells the story of the Bible
in a way that expresses the heart of God’s plan and the central importance of Jesus.
Through this journey you’ll discover that following Jesus is about far more than
individual salvation—it is our participation in God’s renewal of all creation.

This easy-to-read, 79-page book is a brilliant introduction to the big story of the
Bible. Rather than a list of bullet points, or rules, or moral lessons, the Bible is
a narrative. It tells God’s story from creation to new creation, rising to its
crescendo in Jesus.
The Insect and the Buffalo brilliantly
tells this overarching story of the Bible shows how we can live in light of that story.
