About this episode

This episode explores the foundation of covenant in Scripture and its impact on understanding the Bible.

157-In Part 1 of the Genesis to Revelation series, we begin the journey through the story of Scripture by exploring the foundation of covenant. From the opening chapters of Genesis, we uncover how God’s relationship with humanity was never built on fear, striving, or performance, but on promise, identity, and connection. This episode looks at the covenants established throughout biblical history and why understanding them changes the way we read the Bible today. We discuss the difference between Old Covenant thinking and the finished work revealed through Jesus, while also introducing the importance of understanding timelines, audience relevance, and context in Scripture. Many verses that have been used to create confusion begin to make sense when viewed through the lens of covenant. This episode lays the groundwork for the entire series and invites listeners to see the Bible not as disconnected stories, but as one unfolding narrative pointing to fulfillment, restoration, and the completed work of Christ.
