Interpreting and Preaching the Prophets
In partnership with Geloofstoerusting and TGC Nederlands, Dr. Gentry will be teaching on the theme: “Interpreting and Preaching the Prophets.”
Reading the Prophets can be tricky, puzzling, and downright confusing at times. In these three talks Dr. Gentry will help us to better understand the presuppositions and forms of communication of the Old Testament Prophets, that we may better know and proclaim the message of the gospel from these important portions of Holy Scripture.
Dr. Gentry will address this topic in three talks, each followed by Q&A:
