The Bible According to Jesus

How Jesus Teaches Us to Read the Scriptures

The Bible is not primarily about you... and that is very good news.

What’s Inside

Learn to read the Bible the way Jesus said it should be read

This book invites you to read the Bible the way Jesus said it should be read: as one unified story centered on His person, work, and promises — not on your performance.

Jon Moffitt helps you lay down the burden of using Scripture as a rulebook or self-improvement manual and recover it as a revelation of Christ for weary sinners. You will learn to distinguish Law and Gospel, trace the covenantal storyline of redemption, and see how every passage fits into what God has done and will do in His Son.

Who This Book Is For

This book is for you if…

You love the Bible but it often feels like a standard you can’t measure up to
You’re burned out on quiet-time guilt and “read your Bible more” sermons
You’ve heard about Law and Gospel but it hasn’t clicked in real life yet
You want to see how every passage points to Christ, not back to yourself

Watch

Hear Jon introduce the book

It helped me finally see Scripture as good news again.

I have been studying the Bible for 50 years and this book has made the scriptures come alive for me.

★★★★★

Jesus isn’t part of the story of the Bible — He is the story of the Bible.

★★★★★

Instead of walking away from my Bible feeling crushed, I’m starting to see how every passage is meant to drive me back to Christ.
