Wrapping up Intro to the OT Prophets
OT Prophets Course Summary
This month we are wrapping up our first official course, Introduction to the OT Prophets. It has been an incredible course. We taught it live both in the Philippines & in Cambodia with Covenant Mission Seminary. As typical with all of my courses, I have learned just as much if not more than the students! For me the greatest lesson is how merciful and gracious the LORD truly is. Exodus 34:6-7 is surely true. The LORD is a merciful and gracious God, full of faithful love. AND his love and grace expressed in the prophets were not just focused on Israel but the nations.
“I never realized how much gospel & practical application were in the prophetic books.”
Visual Pedagogy
The prophets are full of visual images that God uses to teach his people. Eternal truths appear in every day life as a reminder. A new tool, which I are utilizing now, is AI generated images to assist our students to visualize those truths since we can’t always walk in nature or in that context. Below and above are sample of images. Scroll to see more.
Visualizing the Text
Of course, we are still utilizing our visual handouts, which visualize the text as well. Click on the pic to see more visual handouts.

Update
Please continue to be praying for us. Now that the course is wrapping up, I have a lot of grading to complete. I will also be fully automating the course and there is quite a bit of video editing left to do.
Prayer Requests
Rest for the students on summer break.
