293 - Baptism Imagery in the Old Testament

Providence Church Season 12 Episode 9

What if baptism didn’t begin in the New Testament? What if the waters of creation, the flood, the Red Sea, the Jordan River, and more have been telling a deeper story all along?

In this episode, we take a posture of discovery, tracing the theme of water throughout the Old Testament to discover how the Old Testament shapes our understanding of baptism today. Rather than ending with a concrete definition, we’ll reflect on key moments where water appears in Scripture, allowing them to reveal what we know today as baptism.

From chaos to cleansing, from judgment to new creation, we’ll explore how God has been using water as a symbol of transformation since the beginning. Whether you're new to the Bible or a seasoned theologian, join us as we dive into the story.
