Has anyone read the book ‘By This Name’ by John Cross. My husbands uncles wife suggested I read it.
The description is as follows:
By This Name was written as a tool of bible study lessons to help explain the message of the Bible to a postmodern, post-Christian, secular society. Beginning by identifying who God is and what makes him unique, the author moves through Scripture from creation to the cross. Each chapter lays a crucial block into the foundation for a correct understanding of the gospel. Filled with drawings, maps and diagrams to help communicate the message, By This Name peels the religion off the Bible and lets the ancient story speak for itself.
I’m confused by the description…isn’t this what the Catechism does?
I’m open to reading this book but I wanted to know if it would be a waste of time or not.
