The past fifty years have witnessed unprecedented growth in the African Church, with a gradually blossoming international outreach extending far beyond the continent. The global impact is beginning to be felt all around the world. Yet two acute needs of the African Church continue to stare us in the face. The first need is lack of excellent training for our leadership. The second is the lack of excellent discipleship for new believers. In both cases the need demands focused attention. It is a sad fact that far more than one-half of our leaders have no formal training. And also, far more than one-half of those who become born again in Africa are never led on into any kind of serious discipleship.This book is designed to address this second need, for Christian discipleship in our African churches. Discovering the Old Testament is the second book in the series entitled Teach Me Your Paths. The first book, New Life in Christ, provides a great starting point for anyone seriously wishing to learn the ways of our God. One cannot understand Bible doctrine correctly without obeying God and entering into personal relationship with the Lord (John 7:17; 1 Corinthians 2:14). Experiencing one's own new life in Christ should be the beginning of proper study of Christian doctrine.In this second book we now take a journey through the first part of the Bible, the Old Testament. We begin with an overview of the Bible and some general issues before plunging into the thirty- nine books that make up the Old Testament. It is a well-known fact that the Old Testament is of keen interest to Africans. In many senses they find themselves more at home within the largely rural cultures of the Old Testament than do some other cultures around the world. A grasp of the history and content of God's word as revealed in the Old Testament is very fundamental to our foundation in God's revelation. We believe the present and future strength of the African Church will be far greater if we can hold this revelation very close to our hearts.
