Our lives are stories that are best understood in the context of the Larger Story of the Bible. Garth Oliver leads us through an exploration the key developments of this Story as it unfolds through the Old and New Testaments. In the lives of each of the major characters—people like Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Jesus, the Disciples, and Paul—the Story is advanced. We will look at how the events of their lives build the Story, and move it toward its final resolution. Along the way, we will seek to understand the key issues of our own stories, the Life that is offered with its hopes and promises, and the threats to that Life that can take us out.

Customer Reviews
Godspeed.
I enjoy this podcast. I started listening to your podcast after you were interviewed by Dr. Charlie Bing. It’s evident you strive to rightly divide the word. The most recent evidence of this can be heard in your August 10th episode on the book of Isaiah chapter 63. May our Heavenly Father continue to bless you with the ability to continue this ministry as you seek to serve our Savior and Lord Jesus the Christ, with the help of the Holy Spirit.
Making Sense of Life
So appreciate this podcast. I do not have the time or skills to take such a deep dive into scripture but as an attorney called by God to do what I do I marvel at the depth and even treatment with which Garth handles scripture. What a breath of fresh air.
