It provides an overview of the Bible (Old and New Testaments) showing how every part points to Christ. Jonathan teaches this curriculum to small groups (invitation only) of the top Christian leaders of a given country equipping these leaders to teach the material to others. The book is translated into their languages and given to them at the conferences.
