Book Description

There are 27 books in the New Testament; in "The Bible According to Jeanne," I'm combining some of the books into a single volume. For instance, each of the 4 Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) are stand-alone ("The Gospels According to Jeanne"); next come Acts and Romans as the two books of "The Amazing Early Church." Next sub-series are "The Epistles of Paul the Apostle": 1st & 2nd Corinthians as one book; Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians will be one book; 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Timothy, Titus, and Philemon will be one book; Hebrews will be one book. Then comes "The Epistles of the Apostles," with James, 1st & 2nd Peter, and I'm going to break with tradition to include Jude here; wrapping up with 1st, 2nd & 3rd John with Revelation. That will 12 books all told to cover the entire New Testament. Whew! Next year, I'll tackle the Old Testament ... maybe. Now I know a little how Eugene Peterson felt when he was writing "The Message" - a noble task, that takes years to accomplish.
