Leviticus 16:20

Many people think the Old Testament is mainly about rules and laws. But it tells a deeper story—God’s rescue plan for humanity. From the fall in Eden to the promises of the prophets, the Old Testament reveals the problem of sin and the hope of redemption. The law exposes our need, the sacrifices point to atonement, and the prophets anticipate a transformed heart. In this 5-day plan, discover how the Old Testament prepares the world for salvation and points to the fulfillment of God’s promises in Jesus—a story not just of rules, but of rescue.

This one-of-a-kind reading plan exists for both the skeptic and the faith follower.

For those unsure of Christianity and for those who love them and want to keep the lines of communication open, we show the candid and honest dialogue around challenging concerns of existence, faith and culture.

The tabernacle and all that goes with it speaks to us of Christ (Heb. 10:20). Jesus Christ came and dwelt among us.
