In our next session, we’re exploring the Old Testament.
The Bible is divided into two major sections: the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament contains 39 books and includes law, history, poetry, wisdom, and prophecy.
So the question for this session is simple:
How do the books of the Old Testament fit together, and how does the Old Testament prepare us for the coming of Jesus?
Watch the short video, spend some time thinking through the discussion questions below, and come ready to talk.
And as always, bring any questions you might have.
Video: Overview of the Old Testament
Discussion Questions:
1️⃣ The video shows the Old Testament as one connected story rather than a collection of separate books. Did that surprise you? Why or why not?
2️⃣ As you watched the video, what part of the Old Testament story stood out to you the most, and what questions did it raise for you?
Optional Reading:
