Description
This ten-week Bible study in the popular Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament series completes Guthrie's coverage of the Pentateuch, showing how to see Jesus in Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
"Nancy Guthrie has made the Old Testament come alive again. She connects the gospel dots from the Old Testament to the New, showing us the shadow and then the reality of Jesus Christ, who was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. More than once I saw Jesus in a new and remarkably beautiful way. This study has grown my love for our Savior." -Jessica Thompson, author, Everyday Grace; coauthor, Give Them Grace "User-friendly, biblically reliable, theologically astute, enthusiastically sensible, encouragingly realistic, and deeply Christ-centered-all without losing sight of the fact that the Bible student is to be a disciplined 'workman (or woman) who does not need to be ashamed.' Once again we are deeply indebted to Nancy Guthrie for giving the church an outstanding Bible study resource to help us all grow in the grace, knowledge, and wisdom of God." -Sinclair B. Ferguson, Professor of Systematic Theology, Redeemer Seminary, Dallas, Texas "I can think of few people who are better able to make the Old Testament come alive in as accessible, balanced, and Christ-centered way as Nancy Guthrie, and she has done it again! There is perhaps no greater theme in all Scripture than that of Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away our sin, and it is impossible to understand what that description means without seeing it through Old Testament eyes. Nancy helps us do this with her typical clarity and passionate sensitivity to the story line of the Bible. You will find your thinking stretched, your soul fed, and your heart thrilled by her work." -Liam Goligher, senior minister, Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; author, The Jesus Gospel "As the title says, this book-and the entire series-is about Jesus. Instead of simply telling the stories of the Old Testament and teaching us how to be a better, more successful person, The Lamb of God points us over and over to the one who did it all for us. How refreshing and inspiring to bask in my Savior's love for me-to be loved and accepted because of what Christ has done and not because of what I have done. Nancy's exhaustive research, her facility in writing, and her thought-provoking questions make these studies both challenging and enjoyable. I cannot wait to lead the women in my group through each of her studies!" -Maureen Kyle, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, New York City "Nancy Guthrie masterfully draws out from the shadows the rich, Christ-centered content and themes inherent in Exodus to Deuteronomy. This book provides a needed stepping stone for those seeking a gradual introduction into biblical theology. It is a rare thing to see an author combine such rich redemptive history, natural readability, and vital applicability, but The Lamb of God achieves just that." -Jared Oliphint , Regional Coordinator, Westminster Theological Seminary; contributor, Reformed Forum "In a warm, personal style, Nancy Guthrie opens up Old Testament books to reveal truths of salvation woven into every page. I am always looking for wonderful Bible studies to offer the ladies in our church, and I can't wait to recommend this book!" -Liz Emerson, pastor's wife; mother; grandmother "Nancy Guthrie has provided yet another solid, practical, and thoroughly biblical study guide navigating the rich literature of the Pentateuch. We've used earlier volumes in this series at Parkside and have been encouraged to see people begin to connect the rich prophecies and narratives of the Old Testament to their great fulfillment in Jesus Christ. The layout of the book, the well-written studies, and the substantial questions make for a robust study guide that will challenge your people to truly see Jesus!" -Jonathan Holmes, pastor of counseling, Parkside Church; author, The Company We Keep: In Search of Biblical Friendship "As a children's ministry director who teaches a young women's Bible study, I love the fact that Nancy teaches in adult language and application what we seek to teach our children-that even in the Old Testament stories we see how Jesus has been in the process of redeeming us. Nancy is a master storyteller and teacher who consistently helps us see the redemptive truth of Scripture and apply that truth where we live in the real moments of everyday life." -Sherry Kendrick, Children's Ministry Director, Covenant Church of Naples, Naples, Florida "I am thankful to God to be able to offer Nancy Guthrie's series Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament to the women of our church. For too long studies have led us only to see what we are to do. Now we can see through the pages of this series what Jesus has done! With Nancy's help, the story of redemption jumps off the pages of the Old Testament, and the truths of the gospel are solidified in women's hearts and lives." -Jo Coltrain, Director of Women's Ministry, First Evangelical Free Church, Wichita, Kansas
