How is the Bible like an onion? To find out, join us in studying the literature, historical background, geography, and significance of the books of the Old Testament. When you learn to bridge the gap from original meaning to the contemporary significance of God’s revelation of Himself, you’ll discover that the Bible is not primarily about history, but about God. In lively class discussion, answers are challenged as students grow and learn to live out Proverbs 27:17.
