God is redeeming His creation through His kingdom, the Church of Jesus Christ. We will explore God’s Redemptive Mission as revealed in His Word, from Genesis to Revelation. We will look at “Great Commission” passages in the Old Testament and New testament. We will see that the charge that Jesus gave to His Apostles just before ascending to sit at the right hand of the Father is NOT a last-minute afterthought, but that the Redemption of His people from all the nations is the Heart of God’s Story, revealed throughout the Bible, lived out in the life of Jesus Christ, and is as relevant to each of us today as it was to the original hearers. This class will explore how we can align our hearts with the Heart of God and what that will look like in each of our lives. The class will be led by Rick Paules.
