Between the early years of primary school and Sunday school I learnt about Noah and the ark, David and Goliath, Zacchaeus on the sycamore tree, etc. These stories, I have kept with me, in my memory, helping to shape my adult years. The knowledge I have of these stories is a benefit of the theology behind them. taking them out of the realm of the myth and works of fiction. This book sets before the enquirer deeper meanings of themes of the bible, such as grace. To contemplate other meaning to God's unmerited favor and blessings. This book is not to be read as an academic work nor as a pulpit but, as a tool to turn a light on and to press the reader to enquire into study and understanding of scripture. To help the reader find the truth to refine and define four bible themes: grace, faith, wisdom, and blessing, as they are presented in the book. ER Lawrence
