Does the Bible condone warfare and slavery?
Is the New Testament’s teaching on sex outdated?
Surely there isn’t a literal heaven and hell?

Journey with Andrew Ollerton through God’s Book as he guides you through the Bible’s most challenging questions and helps you discover how Scripture holds together as one coherent story. Through this enhanced reading experience, you are invited to walk alongside Andrew as he traces the biblical plotline from Genesis to Revelation, showing how difficult passages make sense when read in their original context and within the wider story of God.

Across eight accompanying videos, Andrew reflects on key sections of the book, helping readers slow down, ask better questions, and engage honestly with topics such as science and creation, warfare and violence, slavery, suffering, miracles, sex, and judgement. Rather than offering quick answers, God’s Book models a way of reading the Bible that is thoughtful, faithful, and deeply rooted in the life and teaching of Jesus.

‘Wise answers to challenging questions. Hugely helpful!’ Bear Grylls
