Bible Overview (Basic)

This is hardly theological rocket science, and there are different ways to describe these things, and other ways of slicing it all up, and of course much more detail we ought to be able to go in to, but a very basic top level Bible overview might go something like:

Creation
Fall (uncreation / curse on creation)
Redemption (rescue / renewal of creation)
New Creation (consumation / fulfillment / glorification of creation)

It's worth keeping those key moments in our head. They will help to determine our world view and our gospel because they tell us things like where we come from, what's wrong, what the answer to our problems will be and what our future destiny is.
