Chapter 2 – Grain Offerings (loveliness of Christ). Incarnation and Perfect Obedience: Leviticus 2 describes the grain offering, consisting of fine flour, representing the firstfruits of the harvest. How does this offering foreshadow the significance of Christ's incarnate/sinless life? Discuss how Christ's life, perfectly obedient to the Law (Matthew 5:17), becomes the offering that fulfills the demands God could not make of sinful humanity. Supporting scripture, Philippians 2:5-8, Hebrews 7:26, and Romans 5:18-19. Faith and Works in Harmony: The grain offering required specific actions (grinding, mixing with oil), alongside the offering itself. How does this foreshadow justification by faith alone, but with good works as a necessary fruit of genuine faith? Discuss how Christ's perfect offering on the cross secures salvation, while the grain offering points to the believer's response of living a life pleasing to God. Explore Romans 3:28, James 2:14-26, and Ephesians 2:8-10. Christ as our Bread of Life: The grain offering is a reminder of God's provision and sustenance for His people. How does this foreshadow Christ's identification as the "bread of life" (John 6:35)? Discuss how Christ, through his sacrifice and ongoing presence through the Holy Spirit, nourishes and sustains the spiritual lives of believers. Explore passages like John 6:48-51, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, and Colossians 3:1-4. Chapter 3 – Peace Offerings (Christ our peace). Reconciliation and Communion: Leviticus 3 outlines the peace offering, involving a sacrifice shared between the offerer, the priests, and God. How does this offering foreshadow the future work of Christ in reconciling humanity to God and establishing a new covenant of fellowship? Discuss how Christ's sacrifice not only appeases God's wrath but also allows for restored communion between God and His elect people. Explore scripture like Romans 5:1-2, Ephesians 2:13-18, and Hebrews 9:11-15. Types and Antitypes: The peace offering has elements foreshadowing aspects of Christ's ministry. The burning of fat on the altar signifies the offering being pleasing to God, while the blood points to atonement. How does this support the understanding of typology, where the peace offering serves as a type and Christ as the ultimate antitype, fulfilling the foreshadowed realities? Are there other typological connections between the peace offering and Christ's work? Gratitude and Joy of Salvation: The peace offering is associated with thanksgiving and fellowship. How does this foreshadow the future joy and peace experienced by believers through the redemptive work of Christ? Dis

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
