Here in Season 1, we’re taking a Journey through the Old Testament. In the ancient world, the making of covenant was publicly affirmed with a ritual act. In God’s covenant with Abraham, God institutes the ritual of circumcision as that sign. In this episode, Bryan examines the significance of circumcision in light of Abraham’s bigger story.
The ancient practice of a covenant is at the very heart of the Old Testament – and New -- as the name suggests. “Testament” is another word for “covenant.” In this episode, Bryan explores the ancient suzerain-vassal covenant treat and how it appears in God’s dealings with Abraham.
The Bible calls Abraham a hero of the faith. But he also blew it pretty bad at times as he tried to make things happen his own way. In episode 13, Bryan looks at how these stories emphasize the faithfulness of God to keep his promises no matter what.
God’s plan begins with a middle-aged couple unable to have children and yet God promised to turn them into a great nation! In this episode, Bryan continues the overview of Abraham’s story, the Genesis narrative, and looks more closely at God’s promise of a child.
In our Journey through the Old Testament, Act 3 begins with Abraham and his family and focuses on the nation of Israel. This is the rest of the Old Testament. In this episode, Bryan gives some background about Abraham, where he came from, and his world-changing encounter with a unfamiliar God.
