Bible Basics for Catholics is based on Bergsma's popular Introduction to Theology course at Steubenville.

Readers will begin to see the Christian understanding of salvation by walking through the Old Testament, going through the great stories of Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, the great kings and prophets of Israel, and culminating in the person and work of Jesus Christ.… (mehr)

In this short and easy-to-read book, Dr. John Bergsma presents the Book of Psalms as not just a random collection of religious poetry, but rather a book with a structure that outlines the major milestones in salvation history. He also identifies five psalms from each section of the larger book that are important to know, and explains why they are important. Especially useful are the tips for daily reading/praying the psalms. A great introduction—and not just for Catholics.
