- Creation by God; people in His Own image; selfish sin by humans
- Abraham living by faith: for a place, a son & becoming a nation
- Joseph: you meant it for evil, God used it for good
- Moses drawn out of the water; Israel drawn out of Egypt
- The Law from God; a golden calf against God; the place of meeting
- Forty years of wandering; Moses passes the torch of leadership
- Joshua- the taking of the Promised Land by the exiles
- Judges- regional rescuers vs doing what is right in their own eyes
- Ruth makes herself available to be redeemed
- From regional silos to a national quest for a king
- David brings a united kingdom
- As a man after God’s own heart David rebounds back to God
- Solomon, a promising life unfulfilled
- The one kingdom becomes two
- Elijah & Elisha- prophets displaying God and challenging kings

- Israel & Judah fall and are exiled to foreign lands
- Daniel- no serving of foreign gods
- Returning to the land- there is no place like home

- Jesus came preaching the good news & healing people
- Jesus gave an invitation and challenge to enter the kingdom
- Jesus is more than a man, He is the Son of God
