The Old Testament is full of great stories! Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Esau, Joseph, Moses, Samson, Esther, David, Ruth, Daniel & Elijah…
But how do all these stories piece together? How do they all fit into the bigger story of the Bible?
Our new series, The Big Story gives a ten-week overview of the Old Testament. We will look at some of the famous men and women of faith, but we will also step back and look at God’s broader purposes, His relationship with His chosen people, and His plan to restore a fallen creation and save humanity from their sinfulness through the sacrifice of His son.
Because wherever you are in the Bible, whichever story you are reading, everything points to Jesus!

Sandwiched right in the centre of the Old Testament between the books of History and Prophecy are 5 books outlining the experience of 3 main characters - Job, David and Solomon. Through their experiences they record their feelings, insights and understanding of life and above all God. Listen as Steve outlines the main themes of these books and then focuses attention on the book of Proverbs where we can learn so much about how to make life work!

It was a slow fade but a tragic one resulting in Israels demise and captivity. Listen and learn from the mistakes of the past so that we might live God honouring lives.

The Book of Judges includes some of the Bible's greatest characters such as Gideon, Deborah and Samson. However it was also often a time of self-induced hardship and distress for God's people.

Continuing the theme of the Big Story in this message Steve shows how God's Big Story is the story of the Redeemed, so its our story too! Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Joseph and Moses are part of out family history.
In this inspiring message we hear how the same essential ingredients that gave Joshua and the people of Israel success in taking the Promised Land still apply to us today. Its time to 'say something' and agree with God concerning our place and destiny! Steve Campbell, 12/07/2009 | The Big Story - Moses and the Exodus

Moses is one of the Bible's most loved heroes, and The Exodus is one of the Bible's most dramatic stories. But at the heart of this drama is a cruel and powerful Pharaoh; a man ultimately destroyed by the greatest human weakness, pride.
