The whole Old Testament is the story of Jesus Christ, but it is so easy to limit ourselves to familiar verses, books, and passages, without ever understanding the full picture.

Chase takes us, step by step, through the whole sweep of the Old Testament, through its stories and songs, through its prophesies and promises, and shows us how each one points us to the coming Saviour, and God's plan rescue us from our sin and establish his everlasting kingdom.
