This series was taught as the preparation series leading up to the Riggins trip in 2016. In it, we tried to cover the story of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. We go from the very basics of how to think and read, to looking at the plot, characters, setting and conflict of the Bible, and the remarkable double twist ending where the promised seed from Genesis 3:15 shows up… but dies… and then comes back!

Below you will find the recordings and handouts from each lesson, and at the bottom of the page those same recordings and handouts are organized by file type. (So if you want to download all the handouts at once, or all the powerpoints at once, or all the recordings at once you can!)
