Through thirty-three objects, Tim Challies explores the history of what God is accomplishing in this world, whether through princes or peasants, triumph or trial. Each object offers a tangible link between the present and the past, between the Christians of the 21st century and those who lived and died in centuries past.

Die visuelle Kultur unserer Zeit nutzt zunehmend Grafiken, um komplexe Konzepte verständlich zu machen. Dabei ist die visuelle Darstellung von Wahrheit kein neues Phänomen; bereits im Alten Testament wurden solche Darstellungen verwendet, um die Beziehung zwischen Gott und den Menschen zu verdeutlichen. Die Stiftshütte und ihre Elemente symbolisieren den menschlichen Verrat und Gottes Gnade. Auch im Neuen Testament finden sich visuelle Elemente wie Taufe und das Abendmahl, die die Antwort Gottes auf die Sünde des Menschen darstellen. Die Autoren streben an, biblische Theologie auf ansprechende und verständliche Weise zu präsentieren.
