Every great story has a hero—the main character who drives the action and brings hope. So who’s the hero of the Bible?

In this lesson, we’ll discover together that the entire Bible is one big story with one central hero: Jesus! From Genesis to Revelation, we’ll trace how Jesus is present—from the creation of the world, to the promises of a coming Savior, to the powerful pictures and previews of Him throughout Scripture. Come ready to learn how Jesus isn’t just part of the story—He is the story!

 

Series description:

This series explores how key Old Testament events, symbols, and figures pointed forward to Jesus’ death and resurrection. By seeing how God wove the gospel into Israel’s history, we’ll deepen our appreciation for Christ’s sacrifice and the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan.
