Part 1: Shalom and a Just Society
Beginning with the beauty and goodness set forth at Creation and the brokenness brought forth in the Fall, Shalom and a Just Society looks at God’s continued pursuit of wholeness for God’s people, even as God’s people continue to look to idols, kings, and their own strength for their salvation.
From Levitical laws and the Exodus, to the lives of Samson, Daniel, Ruth, Esther, and the first of Israel’s kings, Shalom and a Just Society shows us God’s unchanging vision for shalom. Your community will clearly see the truth of how idolatry in one heart leads to injustice for a whole community, while faithful choices in one life leads to flourishing for generations.

The second part of this series begins with Solomon and the choices he made that led to the divided kingdom of Israel and exile. Your group will read the longing and laments of the prophets and be renewed with hope at the coming of the promised Savior and his earthly ministry.
