A must read to clearly understanding the New Testament. Hard to put down.
Excellent book. Although I've read many books and taken a couple courses on the writing of the New Testament, I learned quite a bit from this book. It's quite easy to read, interesting, and at 188 pages, easy to get through.
Untold Story of New Testament by Frank Viola describes the background behind each gospel/letter in the New Testament: who wrote it, why it was written, what was happening in the Christian Church as the referenced book was being written. After each book's review, the author instructs the reader to "stop and read the referenced book". By doing so, the reader can understand how the information provided impacts how/why the gospel/letter was written. Many examples of background information from Roman culture and how each influenced the nascent church. Excellent end notes and bibliography.
Have purchased 30 copies of Untold Story of New Testament and sent them to Christian friends around the world. This book is so useful, I am purchasing a copy for each family in my church.
