Navigating Old Testament: Knowing God's 'Who'

Saddleback Church·Saddleback Church·50:52

This episode of the "Navigating the Bible" series features an insightful conversation with Dr. Christopher Wright, author of "Knowing God Through the Old Testament," as he unpacks the profound truth that the Old Testament is primarily an invitation to understand who God is—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—rather than merely asking "why." Host Jason Wieland and Dr. Wright delve into how a comprehensive study of the Old Testament provides a rich tapestry for knowing the triune God, challenging listeners to move beyond superficial readings to a deeper, more personal understanding of the divine character. The discussion offers practical guidance for growing Christians seeking to deepen their biblical literacy and theological understanding, demonstrating how the ancient texts remain vitally relevant for contemporary discipleship by revealing the consistent nature and identity of God throughout salvation history. This episode serves as a capstone to the Old Testament portion of the series, encouraging listeners to engage with Scripture as a means of intimately knowing the God it reveals.
