The Story of the Bible

Have you ever wondered if there was one overarching theme to the story of the Bible? So many of us have reduced the Bible to a series of stories of various people, from whom we can learn some important life lessons but have not seen the grand narrative–the whole picture–which utterly transforms everything we have ever believed about the world. In this 2-week series, Dr. Neufeld takes us on a “tour” to discover the Bible’s larger story.

Introduction to the Whole Bible

So many of us have reduced the Bible to a series of stories of various people from who we can learn some important life lessons however we have not seen the grand narrative, the whole picture which utterly transforms everything we have ever believed about the world. For the next 2 weeks I want to retell the story of the whole Bible.

The Fall to the Choosing of a People

We discover the beginning of the story of man, an alarming story in so many ways, yet God still has an ongoing purpose and plan.

The Giving of the Law

We turn now to the next stage in the story. The descendants of Abraham became an extended family of 72. But instead of inheriting the land that God promised, the plot line of the Bible takes an unexpected twist. Abraham’ s descendants become refugees fleeing a famine in the Promised Land and living in Egypt.

Promised Land to King David

Today we’ll learn more about the nation of Israel through the narrative of God’s Word from Joshua to 2 Samuel.

Kings: Hope, Renewal and Decline

Dr. Neufeld explains the progression of the Bible’s grand narrative in the Old Testament and look at the role and purpose of Israel’s kings

Prophets, Judgment and the Return of the Exiles

Today as we trace the Bible’ s story line, we come to the destruction of Jerusalem and what transpired next.

Jesus and the Coming of the Kingdom

The 2nd testament, as it were, lifts the veil and reveals to us the identity of the Christ, or the Messiah King. He is Jesus of Nazareth and what occurred in His life and ministry is the most breathtaking conclusion to a story that already fascinated us.

From the Cross to the World

The gospel writers present a powerful and compelling case that Jesus really is the Christ and the fulfillment of the covenants yet for all 4 of them, everything in the story, is leading to one central focal point. They are leading us to the cross and to the empty tomb.

Rebuilding David’s Fallen Tent & the Test of Mankind

Now that Christ had come the entire story line of the Old Testament is now made plain. And now God’ s plan to reach the corners of the earth with this great story of redemption begins, and would continue to fill the earth with His Glory.
