New Book 'A Walkthrough of the Bible' Offers Unified Overview

Doug Kroeker, a longtime Bible teacher based in Lincoln, Nebraska, has released his new book, A Walkthrough of the Bible, through Writers of the West. The book offers a comprehensive overview of the Bible in eight chapters, tracing the narrative from Genesis to Revelation. Kroeker emphasizes the unity of the sixty-six books, explaining how they form one continuous story rather than a collection of isolated texts. He covers the structure of the Bible, its authorship by more than forty writers over roughly fifteen centuries, and the different arrangements of the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament. The book also walks through major biblical eras—Creation, the Patriarchs, the Exodus, the Conquest, the Kingdom, the Exile, and the return—and explores how the Gospels complement each other and how Paul’s letters addressed real churches. Doctrinal topics like sin, salvation, and the church’s mission are presented as part of a single arc.

Kroeker wrote the book for both newcomers and those familiar with the Bible, aiming to bridge the gap between knowing scattered stories and understanding the whole narrative. He notes that many people grew up with Bible stories but may not grasp how figures like Ruth connect to David or why Revelation ends in a garden. The book has received praise for its approachable yet thorough treatment. Sarah Davis, Lead Editor, calls it “a map worth following,” while Chad Malvo, Production Manager at Writers of the West, describes it as “a summit view” that treats doctrine as living structure. Published on July 4, 2026, the 222-page book is available in Kindle, Paperback, and Hardcover. Readers can Get the book on Amazon →.
