Description

The Old Testament of the Bible can feel like a junk drawera disorganized collection of important stuff we don't want to lose yet but don't know what to do with. From the Pentateuch to patriarchs and from kings to prophets, it can feel like a puzzle we've tried to put together but wind up putting back in the box because it's too complicated.

The Epic of Eden is ideal for groups and individuals looking for a deeply substantive and profoundly spiritual exploration of the Old Testament. Sandy Richter, a learned scholar and passionate teacher, shows us how accessible the Old Testament truly is and how understanding this majority of the biblical narrative leads to a fresh and deep, renewed experience of the New Testament!
