Through Abraham's family, God promises to bless all nations. Genesis follows four generations of human failure set against God's continued faithfulness. As Joseph says, "You planned this for evil, but God planned it for good" (Gen. 50:20). The book ends with the promise of a future king who will restore blessing to the nations.

How does God respond when his people cry out to him? The first part of the book of Exodus recounts a powerful confrontation between God and the unjust Pharaoh. This section is a fast-paced narrative that leads to divine justice, rescue, and deliverance.

The first part of Exodus shows God freeing Israel from Egypt. Then, at Mount Sinai, Moses receives God's law, but Israel breaks the covenant. Moses pleads with God, who renews his promises. After the tabernacle is built, God's glory fills it, but Moses can't enter due to his own rebellion.

The Gospel of Mark gives a thorough account of Jesus' life and ministry without making a clear statement about Jesus' identity, and this is intentional. Mark shows how people, including Jesus' disciples, questioned if he was who he said he was. The second half of the book then provides strong evidence that Jesus is indeed the Messiah.

Jesus' followers received the Holy Spirit on Pentecost and became filled and equipped to spread the good news that would restore God's kingdom over the world. Through persecution, the believers were scattered. They continued to preach, and the church at Antioch was born. It grew into the first multiethnic, international church from which missionaries were sent throughout the world to preach about Jesus, the messianic Messiah and risen king of all nations. Paul even continued to preach despite imprisonment and wrote important letters to the churches.

The book of Romans is one of the longest and most significant things written by the Apostle Paul, formerly known as Saul of Tarsus. Paul was a Jewish rabbi belonging to a group called the Pharisees, and he passionately devoted his life to observing the Torah of Moses and the traditions of Israel. He viewed Jesus and his followers as a threat to these traditions, so he persecuted them. His life was changed, however, when he had a radical encounter with the risen Jesus himself. Paul was commissioned to become an apostle for Jesus, an official representative to the world of non-Jewish people (or Gentiles).

The book of Hebrews challenges believers to remain faithful to Jesus despite hardships and persecution by following the great models of faith from the Old Testament. Hebrews makes clear that Jesus is greater than any Old Testament event or person. He is the ultimate revelation of God's love and mercy, and he is worthy of our devotion.The book of Hebrews challenges believers to remain faithful to Jesus despite hardships and persecution by following the great models of faith from the Old Testament.

The book of Revelation is not a secret code for deciphering the timeline of Jesus' return. It's a work of apocalyptic literature that shows how every human kingdom eventually becomes Babylon and must be resisted. Revelation prophecies that Jesus, who died for the sins of the world, will return one day as King to prompt repentance.
