Chestnut Ridge Church
Has curiosity ever gotten the best of you, and you secretly opened a Christmas present early to see what you were going to get...only to rewrap it and pretend you were surprised at Christmas?
Though the Christmas story—as it is "unwrapped" in the gospels—contains many surprises, the Old Testament believers should not have been surprised. God had not only revealed his "Christmas plan" through words (prophecies), but He also revealed it through stories. Repackaged looks at three Old Testament stories that point to God's greatest gift of all.
