Shadows: Seeing the Gospel in the Old Testament — The Gospel Promised & Realized (Lesson 1)

Pastor Matt Hodge (Discipleship Pastor) - Colossians 2:6-17 (Colossians 1:16-17; 2:6-17; Ephesians 2:19-22; Romans 4:1-10; Galatians 3:6-9; Genesis 3:13-24; 12:1-3; Luke 2:41-47; 4:14-21; 24:25-47; Matthew 5:17-19; John 2:19-22)
In this lesson, we want to establish the relationship between OT and NT by considering how Jesus viewed the OT, and how his approach influenced the apostles. We also want to begin to see some of the examples of the Gospel in the OT, starting at the very beginning of time!
Together, we will be challenged to see the Bible as the incredible story of God’s grace and redemption!
Series description:
This series explores how key Old Testament events, symbols, and figures pointed forward to Jesus’ death and resurrection. By seeing how God wove the gospel into Israel’s history, we’ll deepen our appreciation for Christ’s sacrifice and the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan.
