I enjoyed the videos and the perspective of reading the Bible as one big story. I really appreciate the walk through God’s redemptive love and restoration through the Old Covenant. I would recommend this class to someone!” 

Janae Kerr

My name is Candie Farquhar and I enjoyed reading the books. I loved the insight and the details it gave about why things were written the way they were in the Bible. The topic I enjoyed the most was the way the class broke down the Bible into Acts and how to read it. I would recommend this class. Thank you for offering it!
