Reading Between The Lines Volume One & Two
In Reading Between The Lines, Glen Scrivener invites us to encounter Jesus afresh daily through God’s divine word. Designed to be used for daily reading, this two–volume set offers readers a beautiful survey and devotional guide to the Holy Scriptures—the first volume for the Old Testament, the second for the New Testament. The main goal of these daily readings is to point us to Christ so we can find Him written all–throughout the Bible (John 5:39).
I like that this book is formatted like a devotional. This way, it is easier to read. But this is not your typical devotional. Unlike the usual devotional that focuses on and elaborates a particular Bible verse, each devotional in Reading Between The Lines covers chunks of Bible passages as suggested reading to provide a better context and to cover more ground. Each reading highlights a particular theme in the scripture that ultimately builds up the portrait of Christ so we can see and know him clearly.
What I love most about Reading Between The Lines is that the words written on its pages are solid, grounded, and unapologetic. As the author puts it, this is not a daily pep–talk to inspire you to greater deeds. The studies found here remove the spotlight from you and rightfully place it on Christ so you can see him more. Though the readings are not extensive commentaries, they provide you just the right amount of introduction to various Biblical and Christological themes—a good starter for further and deeper study.
I can’t recommend these volumes highly enough! This year, if you are yearning for a real deep encounter with Christ and His word, Reading Between the Lines is just the right study companion. This will help you to think of yourself less, and grow in Christ more.

A refreshing, energising look at the bible. It’s bite sized, great for a nibble but has enough content to chew over all day if you wish.

Glen is excellent at putting into practice the truth that all of the bible is about the gospel of Jesus. Reading between the lines is always short enough to have time for but rich enough to keep you thinking about through the day!

Awesome! Jesus shines through and I love that! I’ve learned a lot. I think these posts are very helpful for Christians and non–Christians who are interested in the Bible! Clear and succinct

In a page or two each morning Glen Scrivener unpacks deep theology, big concepts about God and mind–blowing Biblical truths in a way that is so easy to read, relatable and understandable. I have already done some underlining to quote him in future sermons! This book does exactly what it says on the tin (or on the cover) it points you to Jesus, warms your heart and encourages you to keep going as a Christian. If you’re looking for a gift to brighten you up on the cold and dark January mornings I highly recommend buying this.
