    Episode 7: The Hosea Prequel: History, Idolatry and Covenants

    In this final episode in the prequel series, we're going to tie everything together. We'll learn how Jesus is the fulfillment of all the covenants we've covered so far, and how he's the fulfillment of another, different covenant. We'll talk about whether idolatry still exists today, and how Jesus dealt with spirits in the unseen realm. Finally, we'll take a peek into Revelation to see what the future holds for Christians (not just believers!). Season 2.5 on Hosea will pick up in the fall. Stay tuned!

    Episode 5: The Hosea Prequel: History, Idolatry and Covenants

    Israel is stepping out of her infancy as a nation and is starting to make grownup decisions that will have lasting consequences.  We'll take a look at the first 3 kings of Israel and examine their relationships with idolatry and we'll look at the covenant that God made with King David.  By the end, we'll see the cracks in Israel begin to show, and despite that, we'll see how God's faithfulness keeps showing up.

    Episode 4: The Hosea Prequel: History, Idolatry and Covenants

    We pick up on the other side of the Red Sea today, and we get the Ten Commandments. We'll take a look at them in the context of idolatry and the realm of the Elohim. We also get a golden calf and a new covenant! With that covenant comes the law, and we'll go over a select few that are relevant to idolatry and future kings, which will eventually lead us to the conditions in Israel that Hosea will pick up in.

    Conclusion

    In this final episode, we put everything in context within the Bible's narrative and talk about how to apply what we learned to the way we look at ourselves, and how it informs how we view people who are different from us. We also learn about why, despite everything appearing as grim as can be, we still have reason to rejoice. Listen to the end to find out what the next season's study will be! Here's the discussion questions for this episode.
