How do God’s promises answer the disappointments and doubts of our lives in a broken world? This week we continue our journey through the big picture of the Bible story to see from Jeremiah 31:31-34 how God’s great new covenant promises answer the disappointments and doubts of a people in exile for their rebellion against God

This week we continue our journey through the big picture of the Bible story to see how King David secures Jerusalem and Israel so they have peace and rest.  King David also sets up the mobile reminder of the Garden of Eden and the Exodus, the Tabernacle, in Jerusalem.  King David plans to make the mobile Garden of Eden permanent, but the Lord promises to make one of David’s sons a king in an eternal kingdom.  King David’s greater son, Jesus, is a better king than David.  King Jesus makes real and brings to life all that the Tabernacle and the Temple had pictured and promised.

When we feel abandoned by God, how can we know he will keep his promises? This week we continue our journey through the big picture of the Bible story to see from Exodus how God keeps his promises by rescuing his people from slavery in Egypt to live as his people, to dwell with them and to point us forward to the rescue we need in Jesus

What is the biggest promise ever made in history? This week we continue our journey through the big picture of the Bible story to see from Genesis 12 how God continues his great plan by promising Abraham a land, offspring and a blessing which will flow out to all the Earth. A great promise that can give us hope for the future, patience as we wait and a purpose to live as a blessing to others.

Sometimes you need to take a step back and see the big picture for anything to make sense. This week we begin our journey through the big picture of the Bible story to see from Genesis 1-3 that God created the world and created mankind to live in relationship with him and to rule over it but mankind rebelled against God and was cast out of God’s place into the wilderness. Despite this, God graciously promised a snake crusher who would undo the curse of judgment, rescue God’s people and restore all things.

How does our new life in Jesus change our families and our work? This week we see from Ephesians 6:1-9 that, as those saved by Jesus, we all live under his authority by living in the ordered relationships that he has established. Those under authority willingly and lovingly submit and those in authority love and serve. Tune in to see how this can shape our families and our workplaces for good so they reflect the beauty of the gospel.

Today, submission is a dirty word. But did you know that submission could be something beautiful? Something that leads to good and flourishing marriages? Something that reflects the beauty of the gospel? This week we see from Ephesians 5:22-33 that, as those saved by Jesus, we all live under his authority by living in the ordered relationships that he has established. For wives, this means faithful, respectful submission out of respect for the Lord. For husbands, this looks like loving, humble service as those under the authority of our Lord.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re lost in the scrub when it comes to how to live in the world? This week we see from Ephesians 5:1-21 that as those who have been saved in Jesus, we can walk as his people by walking in love, walking in light and walking in wisdom.
