Before you can understand any individual part of the Bible, you need to understand the shape of the whole story — creation, fall, redemption, and restoration.

Discussion Questions

7 questions

1.Chan walks through the grand arc of the Old Testament: creation, fall, promise, exodus, covenant, exile, and anticipation. Which part of that arc is clearest to you, and which is fuzziest?

2.The story begins with God creating everything good and humanity in his image. What does it mean to be made in the image of God, and how does the fall distort — without destroying — that image?

3.Romans 5:12–21 frames the entire human story around two men: Adam and Christ. How does understanding Adam's role in the fall deepen your understanding of what Christ accomplished in his obedience?
