"The Drama of Scripture"

 

“The Drama of Scripture: Finding
Our Place in the Biblical Story”

Adult Sunday School, Fall 2010

This class provides an overview to Scripture’s narrative unity, which began with Adam, continued in Abraham and Moses, moved through Israel’s kings, escalated to the Exile, climaxed in Jesus Christ, continues in the mission of the Church, and will be culminated in Jesus’ second coming.  We will consider the unity of Scripture through the lens of “covenant” and “kingdom,” as it centers on Jesus Christ.  Further, we will consider our place in God’s story, as kingdom citizens living in “the-in-between time.”
