Prophecy, Prophets, and Jesus | Week 1
What comes to mind when you hear the words “prophet” and “prophecy?” Often we think of someone who is a spiritual meteorologist who forecasts history and writes it down before it happens.

During this series, Dr. David Turner joins the Discover the Word group to explore with us how Jesus was Israel’s last great prophet. How did they, and how will we, respond to the message He came to bring?
