222 - Covenant with Israel

We are back in time in the community hall with Anthony Locke leading the class through God’s covenant with Israel. This class will help you better understand your Bible and there is helpful reflection on how we as new covenant believers can fall back into old covenant ways of relating to God. Strap in, open your Bible and enjoy.

221 - Covenant with Abraham

Anthony, Tanner and Austin hit the studio for a conversation about God’s covenant with Abraham. Due to a technical issue, we lost the recording from the Sunday class. However, this episode concisely guides us through the covenant with Abraham and helps us understand God’s Word and his promises better. The better we understand this covenant, the better we understand the story of Scripture and how it points to Jesus Christ the true seed of Abraham who makes us children of Abraham by faith.
