This is the first of a three part series called the Torah Crash Course, exploring the book of Genesis. This important biblical book sets the basic plot line and core themes of the entire biblical storyline.Torah Crash Course: GenesisShow NotesAfter many years of pastoral ministry I found that some of the main misunderstandings people have about Jesus come from misunderstanding the larger biblical story that he brought to fulfillment. When we try to understand who Jesus was without reference to the Old Testament, it's kind of like watching the Star Wars movies, but skipping the first episode. You can follow what's going on, but you won't really understand the deeper elements of the story. This set of lectures was my effort to condense the first five foundational books of Jesus’s bible, because they introduce the Plot conflict and storyline that Jesus believed he was bringing to fulfillment.Referenced ResourcesInterested in learning more?

The Sermon on the Mount is one of five major speeches Jesus gives in the Gospel of Matthew, and there are many similarities between these speeches. What is Matthew doing in his gospel that is unique from the other gospels? And how does this shape his portrayal of Jesus? In this episode, Jon and Tim discuss how the Sermon on the Mount fits into the larger context of the Gospel of Matthew.The Sermon on the Mount's Place in the Gospel of MatthewEpisode ChaptersScripture ReferencesReferenced ResourcesInterested in learning more?

In Matthew 6, Jesus transitions from sharing a vision for righteousness that fulfills the Torah and Prophets to talking about how true righteousness impacts religious practices. Religious practices—like prayer, serving the poor, or generosity—are meant to align our hearts with God. But Jesus noticed that many people in his day were doing religious practices to promote their own name and status. He called this behavior hypocrisy, which meant something different to him that it does to us today. In this episode, Jon and Tim discuss the original meaning of the word “hypocrite” and the differing motivations people can have for doing right by God and others.What "Hypocrite" Means to JesusEpisode ChaptersScripture ReferencesReferenced ResourcesInterested in learning more?

A Biblical Theology of a Fruitful Icon by Andy Dvoracek and BibleProject Team – Feb 17, 2020 Tree of Life: Lost but Not ForgottenWhen you think about the tree of life, what are some of the things that come to mind? Even if you’re not a Bible scholar, you’ll likely make connections like the garden of Eden or everlasting life. Indeed, these represent key associations in the account of humanity’s creation and failure found in the first pages of the Bible. But have you ever wondered what the meaning of the tree is and what happened to it after all was sadly lost in the garden?It may come as a surprise to many that the tree of life reappears elsewhere in the Bible––lots of places actually. Let’s take a look in order to discover the meaning of this biblical theme and its implications for our lives today. The Tree of Life PlantedWe are introduced to the tree of life in Genesis 2, where it is described as bearing beautiful, delicious fruit and standing prominently at the center of the garden of Eden. Out of the ground the LORD God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. ── Genesis 2:9 Genesis 2:9 God then invites the humans to eat the tree’s fruit (Genesis 2:16), and the text later states that eating from the tree will lead to everlasting life (Genesis 3:22-24). However, eternal life was not the tree’s only function.At the heart of the garden, where it couldn't be missed, the tree of life served as an object lesson of sorts. It displayed the proper flow of life. God, the source of life, imparted some of his own life to sustain humans. In turn, they were to give life to others and creation (Genesis 1:28). In this way, the tree was a reminder of humanity’s dependence on God and their responsibility to steward the life they received. But what about the
