“The Old Testament is in the New revealed; the New Testament is in the Old concealed.”
-St. Augustine

Unfortunately, many Christians view the Old Testament disconnected from the New, they have a hard time understanding the Old Testament, and how it is relates to Jesus.

On October 6 at the Ballard Campus, a course called “Emmaus Road: Seeing Christ in all of Scripture” will be offered.

Based upon Luke 24:27 “And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he [Jesus] interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself”

Just as Jesus taught the disciples on the Emmaus Road after His resurrection to see himself in the Old Testament, this class will lay the foundation of the overarching Biblical story, studying Jesus in the Old Testament and our role within God’s story.

This Saturday seminar is a great opportunity to grow in your knowledge of Jesus and to gain a broader view and respect for the story of God found within the Old and New Testament. Come by yourself, with your Community Group, or with your family for this valuable teaching seminar.

What is Foundry?

Historically, a foundry was a location where tools and weapons were forged and fashioned. It was a place where iron would sharpen iron, which corresponds to the biblical concept of community (Prov. 27.17).

As Mars Hill’s one-day educational program, Foundry fosters community and spiritual refinement through one-day (Saturday morning) classes. Participants can take the content beyond the classroom setting using an optional study guide, provided for further individual study, family devotions, and/or Community Group discussion. Foundry is open to members and church attendees.
