The Beginning of All Things

From Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to Noah building the ark, the journey of humanity begins with creation, fall, and redemption. Through Abraham and Sarah, God establishes a covenant of promise that passes on through Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob, and Joseph, leading His people from Ur to Canaan, and finally into Egypt—a place of both refuge and testing.

The Age of Deliverance and Kings

In Egypt, God raises Moses, who parts the Red Sea and leads Israel toward Sinai. Under Joshua, the people conquer Jericho and settle the Promised Land. Later come judges and kings—Deborah, Gideon, Saul, David, and Solomon—each revealing lessons of faith, courage, and leadership. Prophets like Elijah, Elisha, Isaiah, and Jeremiah rise to remind the nation that obedience brings blessing, and rebellion brings exile.

The Coming of the Messiah

Centuries later, prophecy is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, born in Bethlehem and raised in Nazareth. He walks the shores of Galilee, teaches in Jerusalem, and gives His life on Calvary. His disciples—Peter, John, James, and Paul—carry the gospel to cities like Antioch, Corinth, and Ephesus, spreading the light of salvation across the world.
