This episode introduces the subject of Meta Narratives in the Bible. Meta Narratives are the "big stories" of the Bible that provide shape and meaning to the entirety of Scripture. There are two primary meta narratives in Scripture: Kingdom & Covenant. In this show, Dr. Romano explores the ever important, but commonly misunderstood theme of Covenant. Covenant is the way in which God has chosen to relate to all people. It provides the context for relationship with God, as well as properly understanding His love and commitment for us. Tune into this episode to grasp the importance of "big stories," as well as to receive a clear picture of the theme of Covenant. If you really want to comprehend what God has done, what He is doing and what He is after in His dealing with humans of every age, you have to have a grasp on the Meta Narrative of Covenant!
