A Bible Summary
I have read the Bible and listened to the Bible all the way through a number of times. But I am looking for a 100 to 200 page summary of sorts. Hopefully by a believer in the Bible. I looked into the Cliffs Notes and I think I am looking for something like that, but from the perspective of a person who holds the Bible very dear. Any suggested books or audios?

https://www.logos.com/product/5716/unlocking-the-bible-story-volume-1-old-testament is volume 1 of a 4 volume set. The author of this has published a brief (10 point summary) that is not available in Logos but is available here https://www.moodypublishers.com/books/bible-study-and-reference/10-keys-for-unlocking-the-bible/ I have used this several times as an outreach to those who are exploring the contents of the Bible. This was actually a city-wide outreach in Chicago several years ago as a partnership between a Christian TV station/Moody Publishers/The Orchard EFC.
Also, D.A. Carson's "The God who is There" is a summary of sorts theologically with 14 texts chosen from Gen to Rev. - https://www.logos.com/product/30961/the-god-who-is-there-finding-your-place-in-gods-story

It's larger than 200 pages, but The Bible Guide is a decent summary of each book.

Fresco, thanks for the recommendation. I ended up purchasing the Believer’s Bible and it is 26 hundred pages. So never mind my silly 200 page suggestion. I look forward to looking into your recommendation. Many thanks!
I'm curious what this is and where you found it. I only know of the 1-volume Believer's Bible Commentary (which I have in Logos, though it's no longer sold by them; it came from Thomas Nelson eBible Bible Study Library on CD-ROM) and the New Believer's Bible (which is the whole Bible, in New Living Translation, not available in Logos, and it's only 1200 pages so that can't be what you're referring to).
Hi Rosie, here is the book, https://www.thomasnelson.com/9780718076856/believers-bible-commentary/
Apparently, from the reviews, it is mostly the same as the first edition, but has some additional information thrown in by the editor.
