About The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible

Is the Bible intimidating for you to read? Do you need someone to help guide you through God's word? Dr. Ron Jones wrote The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible with people like you in mind.

While the Bible is the best-selling book of all time, it can also be a challenge to read because it contains more than six hundred thousand words, two testaments, and sixty-six different books. How does it all fit together? How do we clearly understand God’s continuous story from Genesis to Revelation? Pastor Ron takes you on the ultimate road trip through the Bible and the spiritual adventure of a lifetime.

This will be a great read for the seeker, the scholar, and anyone in between."

What Others Are Saying About The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible

A survey of the Bible is not supposed to be fun or a particularly interesting read. But Dr. Ron Jones has dealt that perspective a death blow. This book is fun, interesting, informative, and insightful. I love it! Any expositor will be well served to consult it before diving into any book of the Bible. He or she will find this book to be well worth the read.

President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible can serve as a read along companion as you read the Bible in your daily life. Ron combines his pastoral experience, Bible teaching skill, and theological knowledge with his down-to-earth communication style to take us on this journey of getting to know the people, places, and life-changing truth of the Old Testament.

Dr. Brian Autry
Executive Director, Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia

Not all preachers and teachers ever take the full Route 66 Tour of each book of the Bible in their study. Even fewer dare to preach their way through the whole council of God as contained in the whole Bible. Ron Jones has done both, and the fruit is an excellent guide to each book of the Bible.  

Dr. Mark Bailey
Chancellor, Dallas Theological Seminary

We’re all looking for direction for our lives. Ron Jones shows us how the Bible gives us just that. Whether you’re just beginning your spiritual journey, or you are farther down the road, The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible is an amazing guide for the trip of a lifetime.

Dr. Jeff Barber
Executive Director, Park Cities Presbyterian Church, Dallas, Texas

The Ultimate Road Trip through the Bible is a wonderful introduction to the Old Testament and its core themes. It is crisp, clear, and full of suggested applications that allows someone not familiar with biblical content to get a frame for how the books of the Bible tell a full coherent story of what God is about. Comparing it to a trip on Route 66 in anticipation of the New Testament volume, I’d say fasten your seat belts for an enjoyable, informative ride."

Executive Director of Cultural Engagement and Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary

Fasten your seat belts! With Dr. Jones in the driver’s seat, The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible takes you on an amazing biblical sightseeing journey as you seek to reach your final destination, the heavenly home. I can hardly wait for the second volume on the New Testament.

Dr. Ron Jones invests great care to map out a route through the Old and New Testaments with attention to detail, while setting our eyes on the great story, God’s story, from Genesis to Revelation. The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible offers a wonderful picture of God’s redemptive plan in an introductory fashion.

Dr. Ron Jones is a gifted Bible teacher. I am happy to enthusiastically recommend The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible to serious Bible students, those who are just beginning to read God’s word, and everyone in between. This book is a tremendous road trip indeed.

“Every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.”

Romans 8:28 MSG

I have been listening to Something Good Radio for several weeks. I gain new insights weekly that I can apply to my life. After a recent broadcast, I got down on my knees, confessed my sins, repented, and asked Jesus to be part of my life. Thanks to God's grace and mercy, you showed me His love. I am a new Christian because of your efforts.

Roger from Nebraska

Thank you so much for preaching the unchanging and powerful word of God every day on the airwaves. My wife and I are originally from India, and now live in Melbourne, Australia. . . . We love to listen to you breaking the Bread of Life. Keep upholding the word of truth in an increasingly dark and dying world.

Andrew from Australia

Something Good happened to me this morning. I listened to Ron's broadcast from last week and feel a renewed sense of hope and encouragement! It was exactly what I needed to hear―to be reminded that our God of yesterday, today and tomorrow will answer my prayers.

Mick from Virginia

Ron's messages on Something Good Radio have brought me back to God and have led me to rededicate my life to Him.

I just want to take this moment to thank the Lord for what He is doing through you. ... We are thoroughly blessed by the wonderful expository preaching! There is so much more I could say, but I will end here. Thank you. my dear brother, so much.

Barlen from Virginia Beach

Your program on the radio is great. I listen to you all the time. Truckers, van drivers and all deliverers are being saved listening to the programs you come up with. God bless you and continue to broadcast more salvation programs for all those on the road, at home, and at work.

Jacob from Facebook

My dad passed away. While driving home, I happened upon your radio show. You talked about redemption. I normally would not have listened, but I was intrigued by what I heard. I want to hear more. I’m not a religious person but I couldn’t turn the program off. I want to learn more.
