Genealogy of Jesus Summer Series Plan
Coordinating worship series art pack.
Series Intro:
From the time of Adam and Eve, God’s people had been waiting for a Savior, a rescuer, someone who would set them free from the curse of sin and death. Throughout the Bible, the promise becomes clearer. He would be born of a woman, a true human. He would be the offspring of Abraham. He would be connected to the royal line of Judah, the greater son of King David. When Jesus was born, he fulfilled all of the prophecies. Our true God came to earth, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary. This series will explore the family tree of our Savior. His lineage is full of unexpected relatives and messy situations. And yet, God used these people to keep his promise to send his Son. Join us as we follow the family tree of the Savior. The Genealogy of Jesus.
About:
The series notes on the right were created to run from Pentecost 1 all the way until Advent and Christmas, when we prepare for and celebrate the birth of the Savior. It is also broken up into smaller sections, so that shorter series options are available.
