This recap episode of Renown walks through Genesis to Ruth, highlighting how every part of the Old Testament points to Jesus. Tobin, Josh, and Matt trace messianic themes from the first gospel promise in Genesis 3, through the Passover lamb, the tabernacle, the sacrificial system in Leviticus, the bronze serpent and water from the rock in Numbers, and Moses as a type of Christ in Deuteronomy. They show how Joshua’s leadership, Rahab’s scarlet cord, the flawed judges, and Ruth’s kinsman-redeemer all foreshadow Christ’s salvation, kingship, and grace to outsiders. Throughout, the conversation connects these “Jesus sightings” to personal discipleship, reminding listeners that God has always had a sovereign plan to redeem people from every tribe, tongue, and nation.
