An engaging retelling of the Bible story for adolescents and young adults
Trevor Dennis, one-time school chaplain, Old Testament Studies tutor at Salisbury and Wells Theological College, and finally Canon Chancellor and Vice Dean at Chester Cathedral, retired in 2010, but continues to teach and to write. He has a passion for sharing contemporary biblical scholarship with a wider audience (including children: he published a children's Bible in 2003), and his work in the area of preaching through storytelling or poetry, undertaken since the early 1980s and represented in six collections published by SPCK, has been ground-breaking.
'Exceptional in its range, from the mysterious and poetic to the
down-to-earth and funny . . . [an] admirably lucid introduction . .
. Trevor Dennis's skill as a storyteller is undeniable.'
*Church Times*
'This extensive re-presentation of the biblical literature is to be
welcomed . . . the author's theological involvement with the
material shines through the collection, creating new insights into
some of the stories.'
*School Librarian*
