Summary
In this episode Kerry and Andy explore what happened between the Old and New Testament. They outline key events, ideas, and movements that help you make sense of the world of Jesus Christ and the New Testament. Without this information there will be so many things you won't understand, but with it, you will have so many "aha" moments as you see why they did what they did and believed what they believed in the New Testament.
