Bible by Drone-Flyover

I read through the Bible every year - but I'm a reader who is often challenged with comprehension due to mind wandering or distractions. This book appealed to me for that reason - to tie the whole story of God's love and plan for us to the many different stories of the Bible, as woven together. Angie Smith makes the journey enjoyable and easy to understand. I'd be quick to recommend or give this book to new believers or someone trying to just figure out what the Bible is all about. The only down side for me was the off-beat, sometimes cheesy humor. But - I get it, it broke up the challenging and difficult things, places, people that can be hard for us to relate to and for some it will be what keeps them going to get through the whole woven story. That would be my only drawback and otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed reading through and getting fresh perspective in connecting all of the dots - many I already knew, but I got to see them in a fresh way. It was kind of like flying over the by drone to see the whole landscape of God's Word at once.
