An Expositional Plea to Dig into the Old Testament

Gleason Archer wrote, "Curious to observe and hard to understand is the relative neglect of the Old Testament (OT) by Christians in our day as Sunday after Sunday the average church attendant in the average evangelical, Bible-believing church hears no message at all from the Hebrew Scripture...How can Christian pastors hope to feed their flock on a well-balanced spiritual diet if they completely neglect the 39 books of Holy Scripture on which Christ and all the New Testament (NT) authors received their own spiritual nourishment?" Before beginning our new study in the OT minor prophet Joel, we want to develop the foundational importance of the Old Testament, the 1st 3/4ths of our Bibles. At GBC we wish to declare the whole counsel of God in both testaments, so join us this Lord's Day for "An Expositional Plea to Dig Into the OT."
