He Shall Crush His Head: God's People and His Enemies (Old Testament) Timothy R Nichols

The Story Of Your Life starts in Genesis, continues past Jesus, past your breakfast this morning, and goes on to the day when heaven comes to earth in the New Jerusalem. And then it really takes off. Who are we? What is our purpose? In the biblical Story, God answers these questions and more. Learn how our people struggled against the kingdom of darkness, clinging to an impossible promise that one day, a Redeemer would come and set everything right. Hear the stories. Sing the songs. Meditate on the laws and the proverbs. Anticipate with them, and then follow Jesus as He fulfills all that a human being was meant to be. Marvel at His miracles, struggle with His parables, learn to live His teachings...and bring your students with you. Bring them to the cross, where Jesus took every weakness, every sin, every sorrow, and even death into Himself. When He died, they died too, and He raised us all to new life -- resurrection life for the whole world. When He returns, a new day dawns on the whole creation. We live in between. The darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining. Help your students navigate the in-between times with wisdom and grace, to be agents of God's blessing to those around them, to see His hand at work in the world, to hear His voice, and to live in light of the biblical Story. Their Story. The only Story.
