Using Timothy Tennent’s Foundations of the Christian Faith, this is a 6-week class on “The Fulfillment: Jesus and the Old Testament”. We will look at important figures in the Old Testament (Adam, Abraham, Moses, and David) to help us more fully understand the New Testament gospel. We will consider the fulfilled roles Jesus embodies as the Second Adam, High Priest, Prophet/Redeemer and King of Kings. The last discussion covers Christ, the Suffering Servant.

First Frisco Ironworks is a ministry for Christian men. It refers to the refining activity of God that is needed in the life of every Christian. Refining and forging require tremendous heat and intentional shaping. A tool that has been properly refined and forged is more effective, and less likely to break under pressure. Important point: Men who participate in this ministry are not the fire, or the hammer, or the anvil! We are the lump, being refined and shaped for God’s purposes. For men, this process of spiritual refining and forging works best in the company of other men who are committed to the same goal. Join Pastor Mark on Fridays from 6-7 am in the Gathering Area. FFIW is currently studying "The Awe of God" by John Bevere. Contact Pastor Mark, mark@firstfrisco.org, for details.

Facilitator: Rev. Mark Vowell
