0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.
0:03.0	This year, we want to spend a few minutes with you every day walking through our study Christ and all of Scripture.
0:09.0	Each week we will dive deeply into two passages of Scripture, one from the Old Testament and one from the New,
0:15.0	seeing how they connect and point to Jesus.
0:17.0	Whether you are doing the study yourself or just following along with us here, we are hopeful
0:22.0	that through studying these passages each week, you will see how Christ is not only present
0:26.6	throughout the entire biblical story, but the center of it. Hi, friends. Welcome back to a year in

1:33.4	The temple symbolized God's relationship with his people, a relationship that promised blessing and peace.
1:39.1	And it was in light of this relationship that God's people were encouraged to worship God and be obedient to
