The Story of the Bible (Revelation)
We have come to the conclusion of our Story of the Bible series. It has been an amazing journey. We started in Genesis and have worked our way through the entire Bible, pointing out the big and small storylines and how it all connects to Jesus. As we have worked our way through the New…
The Story of the Bible (Hebrews-Jude)
As we finished up the letters of Paul and saw their significance in the storyline of the Bible, we are now going to move into other letters written by people other than Paul. These would be Hebrews, James, 1 and 2 Peter, 1, 2, and 3 John, and Jude. All of these letters help further…
The Story of the Bible (The Letters of Paul)
So far in our series, we have covered the entire Old Testament and a good chunk of the New as well. Jesus has come and the Spirit has been sent out into the believer’s to continue sharing this good news that Jesus brings salvation. Now we have reached a section of the Bible that is…

The Story of the Bible (The Wisdom Literature)
As we continue our series in exploring the narrative of the Bible, we will eventually come to a set of books best known as the “Wisdom Literature”. Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, and Job are all part of the Jewish wisdom literature of the Bible. Even though there is much to learn in these books…
The Story of the Bible (Psalms & Lamentations)
Hebrew poetry is a major theme in the Old Testament. Although much of the prophets and wisdom books are poetic, these also fall into different categories. There are other books that are poetic that fall into different categories, these are the books that we are calling the Hebrew Poetry books. These books are the Psalms…
The Story of the Bible (Minor Prophets)
The books of the Bible known as the “minor prophets” are probably the least known about books by most Christians in the entire Bible. They are shorter books of the Bible made up of confusing poetry and imagery and seem pointless to most readers. When we actually take a look at these books in their…
