We believe in any relationship the more you know about and interact with another person, genuine love deepens. The same would-be knowing God, His love for us, and His story within history. The more we know about God the more we will in turn love God. Our desire is that the church would know more about God, deepen our love for Him, and experience His redemptive work in our lives.

In today's culture and our church, we are seeing more and more people lack understanding of the bible in how to read, understand, and apply to their own life. This series gives us a chance to understand God’s Redemption story in a big picture as well as allows us to internalize it and apply it to ourselves. 
 
This will also give us a chance to see how we relate to the ancestral history of the Family of God that all Jesus followers are now a part of. As we spend time with the Biblical heroes and villains of our past, we will become familiar with our roots in order to better see the heart and hand of God work throughout Human History.

What's Happening in the book of Isaiah?

In the last installment of God’s Redemption Story, we explored Isaiah 39 and 40. As prophesied by Isaiah, the Northern Kingdom of Israel was taken into captivity by the Assyrians. Isaiah had previously warned that the Assyrians would eventually be overtaken by the Babylonians. Despite this, Judean King Hezekiah showed off the kingdom’s treasures to Babylonian envoys. Isaiah told Hezekiah that the Kingdom of Judah would eventually fall into Babylonian captivity, and the Babylonians would obtain all of the treasures he had shown them. After bringing the news of the coming captivity, God used Isaiah to share a powerful message of comfort, hope, and restoration.

The book of Isaiah is often split into three sections, with the last section beginning in Isaiah 40. At this point, the people of Israel are in a place of suffering and struggle, and the people of Judah have been warned that suffering and struggle are in their futures. In this fear-filled season, God used Isaiah to bring a hopeful, Messianic message to His people. This last portion of Isaiah centers around the sovereignty of God and His working through His people’s suffering to bring about His ultimate plan of justice and redemption. In it, Isaiah speaks of a servant that would come to bring salvation to the world. We now know Jesus is the servant Isaiah was describing.

This Sunday, we will explore Isaiah 53, a powerful Messianic passage that is sometimes called “The Poem of the Suffering Servant.” Join us as we take our final look at how God’s Redemption Story is reflected in the prophetic ministry of Isaiah.
