What is the Good Life?

Two of the main questions the Bible has been asking us is "what is the good life?" and "how do we find it?" In the wisdom literature, we see three books show us three different stories, but all pointing us back to the idea that the good life is found in wisdom... and wisdom is solely found in the fear of the Lord... Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Job

Are We There Yet?

The story of Scripture so far is that God’s people have been pursuing a way of life for themselves that God didn’t intend for them… after the cycle of sin in Judges, they keep falling into idolatry… and they know something is wrong… but where do is the fix? In 1 Samuel 8:5, we see that they think its through a king... they cry "we want a king like the other nations! Make us great again!" … and because of idolatry, lust, greed, and pride, they lose the presence of God... but God intends for a better king to come... the question is, are we there yet?

How Do We Live With God?

As Genesis continues, sin expands. It can seem like creation is getting out of hand, and God is absent. However, Genesis reveals that God does not leave his people... God graciously continues to draw his people back to himself, but the question begins to arise, "how will we live with our God?" ... Even as the story of the Exodus come and as his people leave Egypt, the people of God are left asking, “how can we know this God? How can we live with him?” and God answers in Exodus 19...

How Will the World be Fixed?

After Genesis 3, it seems like the story of the Bible gets dark. Sin runs deeper and deeper... to the point of God being grieved of making mankind. From murder to pride, the heart of man is inherently sinful, but God doesn't abandon mankind. Instead, the reader can see from Genesis 4-17, God begins to call a people to graciously save and establish a covenant of peace that will restore his people to himself... but how?

What's Wrong With the World?

There's something seriously wrong with our world and us... Things aren't as they were created to be... but what's wrong with it? In Genesis 3, Moses helps us understand where things all went wrong... Deception led to disobedience against the good God and sin corrupted all of creation including people... but Moses shows us that God does not leave us hopeless...

Why Are We Here?

In Genesis 1:26-28, the creation narrative breaks its rhythm by describing people as the imago Dei... the image of God. People are uniquely highlighted in this text and in Genesis 2... but why? These texts show us that we are here to be God's people meant to live for God's glory...

Who is God?

The Bible begins in Genesis 1 with a poetic creation narrative... but it also introduces us to the focus of the book and history in general... God! Who is God and what do we learn about him in Genesis 1?

The Beginning & The End

How does the Bible begin? How does it end? Why does it matter? ... From its opening scene to the final word and every breath of life between, the Bible is a story of how all of creation will live in God's glory... Join us as we trace the story of Scripture this year!
