Join authors Matt Carter and Halim Suh as they examine Genesis 12-50 and explore how the early portions of the Bible foreshadow the gospel of Jesus Christ -- the good news of salvation and redemption that we find only in relationship with Him. When we read about Abraham, Jacob, and Joseph--the family of promise--we read about salvation by faith. We begin to understand that God orchestrates everything, including suffering and evil, in order to redeem the consequences of the fall and ultimately restore us to Him.
