Old Testament Stories

Be honest: the Old Testament can be hard going. Strange laws, ancient battles, and a God who can seem angrier than the one Jesus called Father.

These talks face that head on, asking whether the God of the Old Testament really is the same as the God of the New, and showing how the exodus, the wilderness and the kings all lead somewhere. Read it right, and the whole story points to Jesus.

The Good News Of Jesus

One of the things Paul does well in Acts 13 is treat the Old Testament as the necessary backdrop to Jesus rather than as ancient pre-history. The exodus, the wilderness, the judges, the kings — all of it has weight, all of it is going somewhere. If you've struggled to see why the Old Testament still matters or how it connects to the New, the talk's careful tracing of how Paul uses it gives you a working model. Not detached from Christ — saturated with him.
