I love a good story — one with a complex plot, intriguing characters, recurring themes and a happy ending.
The Bible has it all: a complex plot (good versus evil), intriguing characters (folks like Moses, David, Solomon, Esther, Peter and more), recurring themes (lost and found, truth and deception, wisdom and folly, destruction and restoration) and a happy ending (for faithful believers).
John 20:31 (NIV)
These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
