He Was There All Along

Finding Jesus in the First Half

You’re invited on a 30-day journey to find Jesus in places we sometimes miss.

A promise in a garden.
A lamb in a doorway.
A branch from a stump.
A King still coming.

The first half of the Bible carries the promises, people, and places that lead us to Jesus. But the journey doesn’t end here.

See the whole story. Make the connections. Know Jesus more deeply.

See the Story Differently

You know the story of Bethlehem. But the story of Jesus started long before the manger.

Watch Ron and Matt share why the first half of the Bible changes the way we see the Incarnation, and discover the promises, people, and Jewish story that had been pointing to Messiah all along.

Begin a meaningful, 30-day Advent tradition with this interactive journey through the first half of the Bible.

The Bible communicates in pictures. A lamb. A star. Isaiah 11 even describes a tree stump out of which will come a Savior. From those images we can trace the promises, people, and pictures that lead to Jesus. Worship and celebrate Advent this year in a new way. Every day:

  • Read the devotional and Bible passage.

  • Watch the short teaching.

  • Hang the ornament.

  • Make the connection.

  • You’ll find . . . Jesus was there all along.

There’s more to the story you love.

Jesus didn’t first show up in Matthew. Join us for He Was There All Along, a free 30-day reading plan on YouVersion. Together, we’ll explore the Old Testament, see how it points to Jesus, and get to know the God who’s been faithful through it all.

Bring This Story to Your Church

Through engaging Bible teaching, storytelling, and a Messianic Jewish perspective, we help Christians rediscover the Jewish roots of our faith – how the whole Bible points to Jesus.

Make the connections.
Know Jesus more deeply.
