Our present lives will end. After that comes the judgment. For those “in Christ” we are soberly aware that God the Father working in Christ through the Spirit will make us blameless on that day. In the meantime, we persuade others to trust Christ in order to be prepared for the reality of that day.connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-11-18T15:32:53-06:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/2f4ddccfa831b2f372ec190ccc166167-45.php#unique-entry-id-45http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/2f4ddccfa831b2f372ec190ccc166167-45.php#unique-entry-id-45>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>In our final session we consider Jesus as the focus of God’s plan and human History.

Part of the fulfillment was the extending of the blessings of the Promises to the Gentile Nations in the book of Acts which we will cover next week. connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-10-16T10:30:39-05:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/efe2f149364433984ae6917c136089b7-41.php#unique-entry-id-41http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/efe2f149364433984ae6917c136089b7-41.php#unique-entry-id-41>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>This week, we consider Jesus’ teaching that prepares for the coming of the Church.

As we move toward the entrance of Jesus the Messiah into history based on the Promises given to Israel, we see that everything that has been lost, twisted and broken by human rebellion will be redeemed, cleansed and restored by God’s gracious and powerful work. connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-02-25T10:35:06-06:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/ce79e33f05a67bacafad21bb4b24a381-29.php#unique-entry-id-29http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/ce79e33f05a67bacafad21bb4b24a381-29.php#unique-entry-id-29>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>God has a plan that He is working out in our history. It begins with Creation and moves toward New Creation. This week we begin to explore this glorious Plan by discovering what the Bible tells us about our Origins - Why did God create us? We also take a look at what went wrong in the beginning that has lead to all the chaos and corruption that we see in our times.connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-03-05T08:30:20-06:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/7268447ef3b42d81047698e9d4e20163-30.php#unique-entry-id-30http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/7268447ef3b42d81047698e9d4e20163-30.php#unique-entry-id-30>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>We cover Genesis 3-11 as the foundation for understanding both the unraveling of our present world and the everpresent grace of God. In Genesis 1-11 we have all of the foundational questions asked that the rest of the Bible and God’s glorious plans for our history will answer.connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-03-11T12:33:02-05:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/b431fc85c8da05c39755be38544f436b-31.php#unique-entry-id-31http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/b431fc85c8da05c39755be38544f436b-31.php#unique-entry-id-31>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>We consider the promises given to Abraham as a foundational and pivotal part of God’s plan for history and humanity.

Even though Israel proves to be a stubborn, stick necked and hard hearted people, this does not negate God’s purposes being worked out through His unique chosen people. connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-03-25T10:49:25-05:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/f9e8ccda3b6d33e4d6256b3774347103-33.php#unique-entry-id-33http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/f9e8ccda3b6d33e4d6256b3774347103-33.php#unique-entry-id-33>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>We continue on through the Story of the Bible focusing on the Promises of the Davidic Covenant. The promises to David set the blueprint and roadmap for God’s purposes in our history. One of David’s sons would inherit his kingdom and rule on his throne over all the nations forever. Yet the sons of David prove to be failures. The classical Prophets arise to warn the people of the coming judgment and also to extend hope based in the Lord’s mercy and grace. connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-04-02T09:06:56-05:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/2c3ba2a81ce31b0e7584d73b5fa2aa62-35.php#unique-entry-id-35http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/2c3ba2a81ce31b0e7584d73b5fa2aa62-35.php#unique-entry-id-35>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>This week we explore the events leading up to the promise of the New Covenant in the Exilic Prophets. Just when it seemed that all hope had been lost for Israel, God once again intervenes in grace to give hope to His people. The New Covenant promises restoration for the people, the land and the rule of David. connect@tsfmemphis.orgDigging Deeper2009-04-08T10:01:59-05:00http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/96527adc36a7025b001f92ea80843560-36.php#unique-entry-id-36http://www.tsfmemphis.org/resources/podcasts/theplan_files/96527adc36a7025b001f92ea80843560-36.php#unique-entry-id-36>>Listen to or download the audio here.]]>This week we take a look at God’s plans in the Post-exilic prophets that lead to the coming of Jesus The Messiah.
