IBARANI 1:1-2

When Jesus died on the cross, His blood ran from the pillars of wood to the very depths of our spirits. We were finally reunified with God, who speaks to us through a universal language that directly translates to our situation — no matter who we are, no matter where we came from, and no matter what walls divide us. He bled out so all could come in!

This study, through the book of Hebrews, is designed to help believers in Christ Jesus live a victorious life of faith. It is called Faith Adventures because this study is derived from Chingtok Ishaku's book titled Faith Adventures.

When Jesus came in the flesh, died and resurrected, He unleashed in the world a new covenant reality - the kingdom of God. At the heart of this new covenant are the values of our King and the cultural transformation He longs to see in the world. This plan is a daily discovery of what moves Jesus’ heart. I pray that each day our hearts are made more like His!

What are you missing if you only read the Bible? We have long recognized that the Bible was written for us, but not to us, and requires us to make efforts to bridge the cultural gap between ourselves as readers and the writers of the ancient world. In this study, we will become aware of yet another gap that we must recognize and factor into our reading: we must bridge the modality gap between the written word and the oral word.
