C&C: The True King, the Triumphal Entry, and the Temple

Creation and the Cross.
When Jesus entered into Jerusalem, he is declaring himself to be the king. Everything that was customary to do in that time period, Jesus does. Only Jesus does everything very... Jesus-like. He flips the script on what is expected. Jesus ends his triumphal entry in the temple. The temple was meant to represent the Garden of Eden, where God's space and human's space overlapped. God is returning to the Garden and has something to say that's worth listening to.

S2 E10: Love and Strength

Exodus 5-11.
The exodus event is a spectacle of God's love and strength. He is loving enough to want to save his people and strong enough to do so. God goes through great lengths to reveal these two aspects of himself. In this episode, we look at the beginning of the exodus event and see the strength and love of God combine as he frees his people from slavery. This same strength and love is seen all the more fully with Jesus on the cross as God saves us from our own sin and slavery.

S2 E9: Call and Response

Exodus 3-4.
What excuses do you bring to God? When God calls Moses to be a part of his plan, Moses actually gives God 5 excuses to why he isn't the right man for the job. The core of these excuses shed light on why we often say no to God when God is calling us to take part in something amazing.

S2 E8: The God who Sees

Exodus 1-2. 
Do you feel seen, heard, noticed? At the beginning of the Exodus account, God's people are in harsh slavery in Egypt. In this episode, we look at what God does when his people are hurting. God sees, hears, remembers, knows, and ultimately moves towards us as we cry out to him.

S2 E7: From Pit to Palace

Genesis 37-50.
What do you do when life doesn't go your way? In the life of Joseph we see how God sanctifies us when our situation isn't what you expected. These sovereign strange turns are actually what God uses to shape and mold us into who he desires us to be. When we cannot trace his hand, we can trust his heart.

S2 E6: Deception and Blessing

Genesis 25-36.
What does God do when we keep going back to our same patterns of sin? In this episode we will be looking at the life of Jacob. Jacob went from a deceiver (to get from God) to a receiver (of the gift of God). The hope of this episode is for us to see what God does with someone who keeps trying to live life on their own terms. Will God bless a liar and a deceiver?

S2 E5: The Sacrifice of God

Genesis 22.
What does true trust look like? Looking at the climax of the Abraham story, we see God testing Abraham with the (near) sacrifice of Isaac. At this point in the journey, Abraham has been walking with God for years and is clearly a changed man. But what does he (and we) do when God ask us to do the hardest of all things? Will we trust him even when what he asks does not make sense? The hope of this episode is for us to see the heart and character of God, who ultimately makes the greatest sacrifice on our behalf in his Son, Jesus.

S2 E4: The Promises of God

Genesis 12, 15, 17.
God is a promise making and promise keeping God. But what do we do in the gap between promises made and promises kept? In this episode we look more deeply at the promise God made to Abraham, known as the Abrahamic Covenant. In it, we will see how this promise of God becomes one of the most predominant themes throughout your Bible and even into eternity. The hope of this episode is for us to see God as the promise keeping God he is as we continue to trust the final fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham in Christ.

S2 E3: The Journey with God

Genesis 12-25.
The journey of faith is not a straight shot of perfection. It is a slow steady journey of progress over time. In this episode, we look at the life of Abraham from start to finish. Throughout his life, Abraham is marked by both faith and doubt, successes and sins, joys and pains. Abraham's life is a model of how to grow in trust and live by faith (and what happens when you don't). It takes time and the choice to continually trust in God no matter the situation.
