    God has made many promises and they are found in Scripture. Mark Dever, in his book "What Does God Want Of Us Anyway?", outlines God's promises in Scripture. He looks to the Old Testament as the place where God makes His promises. He looks to the New Testament as the place where God keeps His promises. Dever does an excellent job and looking at God's promises. He shows how these promises are full of hope, not only because the promises are made, but more importantly because God keeps all of the promises that He makes.This short book does an excellent job of writing a great overview of the whole Bible. The message of the Bible is seen very clearly through the Promises of God. Dever uses these promises to help outline the message of the whole Bible. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to get an overview of the Bible.

    The title of Mark Dever's book "What Does God Want of Us Anyway?" is a bit misleading. It should more accurately be labeled, "What is the Bible all about?" That is not to say that this small volume is without merit. Given its size (@125 pages) and easily-readable style, it has the potential to be a wonderful evangelistic tool or a helpful resource to place in the hands of a new believer. The author does a commendable job of surveying the entirety of Scripture by providing an "aerial view" that places both testaments, as well as the individual books of each into perspective. Dever demonstrates the consistent unveiling of God's purpose and promise throughout the biblical narrative in such a way that the reader is better able to relate the individual parts to the whole. This would be a very good book to use in a new members class or in a small group study among those getting into God's Word for the first time. As with all of the books in the small 9Marks series, this one is biblically sound and well worth the investment.
