Take a fresh look at the prophecies that foretold the coming of Christ

Today's world has conditioned us to expect instant gratification. We have become a population that has forgotten the disciplines gained from waiting. Rarely do we find occasion to stand on the figurative shore, look to the horizon, and feel mounting anticipation and eventual fulfillment. For hundreds of years, however, God's people waited for the coming of the Messiah. But they had hope. They had God's promise.

Journey through the many prophecies that pointed to the coming of Jesus Christ. Light. Defender. Champion. Healer. Eternal Priest. Shepherd. Cornerstone. These are a few of the prophecies Jesus fulfilled. You'll better understand the significance of fulfilled prophecy and the impact it has on you; where you are; and in your life.

Examine the many charicteristics of God

God has many contrasting aspects of who He is. He is far more complex than we could ever hope to understand fully. He is holy and mysterious, and yet as near and personal as our dearest friend. He is everywhere, and yet we can encounter Him in specific places. From a distance, He created a universe from nothing by the power of His word. By contrast, we see God digging down into the dirt, using that dirt to form a man, and then, in a very intimate way, breathing the breath of life into his nostrils. This is an "up-close-and-personal" God. God, as we encounter Him in Jesus Christ, is an "embraceable mystery." Explore together the puzzle of these contrasts as you deepen your relationship with God.
