Episode 5: Preaching Christ from the Old Testament with Jared Hood

How do we preach Christ from passages where His name is never mentioned? And how do we avoid either forcing Him into the text or missing Him altogether?

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr Jared Hood, Principal of the Presbyterian Theological College and long-time Old Testament preacher and lecturer. Jared helps us think carefully and faithfully about how to preach Christ from the Old Testament not as a preaching trick, but as a theological and biblical necessity.

We explore:

• Why Christ-centred preaching matters for the whole Bible
• Different ways Christ genuinely emerges from Old Testament texts
• Pitfalls to avoid when connecting the Testaments

Whether you’re preaching from Exodus, Proverbs, or the Prophets, this conversation will equip you to preach the Old Testament with depth, care, and gospel clarity.
