VIDEO: Review of ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told: An Eyewitness Account,’ by Bear Grylls

By John Whittaker | Bio

John Whittaker is a disciple of Jesus and a Bible teacher whose goal is to provide what he calls “blue jeans theology”–theology for everyday life. He’s been a pastor and Bible college professor and a church planter. One of his greatest joys in life is being a husband, father, and grandfather. He is the creator of the Bible in Life online teaching ministry (at johnwhittaker.net) and of the Listener’s Commentary on the New Testament (listenerscommentary.com). He loves seeing people come alive to the joy and transforming power of walking with Jesus in the midst of their everyday life.

Using the Gospel of John as the backbone, The Greatest Story Ever Told by Bear Grylls is a harmony of the Gospels retold from the perspective of various characters who were there. The book traces the life of Jesus in five parts from five different people’s perspectives. In this review, New Testament theologian John Whittaker gives us a summary of the book as well as its strengths and suggestions for improvement.
