🎙 Episode Title: Shadows and Substance: How Biblical Typology Reveals Jesus in the Old Testament

Episode Description:
You know those Old Testament stories—tabernacles, sacrifices, wilderness wanderings—that feel a little... distant? What if they were actually about Jesus the whole time? This episode unpacks the Typological Framework: the idea that people, places, and patterns in the Old Testament weren’t just historical—they were prophetic blueprints pointing to Christ.

We explore how the Bible’s types and shadows—from Adam to the Passover lamb to the high priest—were designed to foreshadow the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. You’ll see how the New Testament reinterprets the Old, how the early Church read their Bibles, and why recognizing these Old Testament types of Christ can unlock a whole new depth in your Bible study.

Whether you’ve never heard the word “typology” or you’re already hunting gospel breadcrumbs in Leviticus, this one’s for you.
