It is the guidebook for Christians, and has shaped culture, law and morality in many societies. It covers God\u2019s relationship with human beings from before 2000 BC to about 95 AD.

It is a series of 66 books, like a library. The many books together tell one major story. God, the creator, made human beings to have a relationship with him. Humans rebelled against God, but he made a plan to save the world \u2013 to send us Jesus Christ. This is good news for us today.
