The latest book from Union University Press has just been published and is titled, Great Stories of the Old Testament<\/em>. Our Word Series in chapel in Spring 2025 shifted from our typical process of preaching through a specific book and instead focused on some of the great stories of the Old Testament. It seems that many people, especially younger people have less familiarity with these great stories so we thought it would be useful to focus on some of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the table of contents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 1: You Have Not Withheld Your Only Son from Me (Genesis 22:1-19)<\/strong>              Justin Wainscott<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 2: Joseph\u2019s Story (Genesis 50:15-21)<\/strong>        Eric Smith<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 3: Hold the Line (Exodus 17:8-16)<\/strong>          Dub Oliver<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 4: Have More Fear, Christ Is Here (Exodus 19:1-20:21)<\/strong>                     Andy Pettigrew<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 5: How Do You Lose God? (Judges 16:1-22)<\/strong>         John Oswalt<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 6: David and Goliath (1 Samuel 17)<\/strong>         Ray Van Neste<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 7: The Miraculously Mundane Mercies of God (1 Kings 17:8-16)<\/strong>                Mark Catlin<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
