Our story isn't over, but we already know how it ends. The final chapter in the Bible's big story shows us what will happen when Christ returns, once and for all, and makes everything right again. No more tears, no more pain—only restoration.

Much of Scripture's story is dedicated to illustrating the fact that humankind is utterly helpless to fix the problems it has created. We need force outside of and greater than ourselves to be our agent of redemption. Enter Jesus.

He is the cornerstone on which the Bible's whole story hinges. Through Christ, God is reconciling all things to himself.

Although the Bible is comprised of many books by many different authors, they all work together to tell one big story. In this series, we break down the Bible's big story by looking at its four main parts: creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. We'll begin by looking at creation, examining God's good design of our world and unique purpose for humanity.
