How can an event that happened 2,000 years ago change your stress level today?
In this visually gripping and theologically deep session, John Barnett answers the hardest question of the Christian faith: How do I live a supernatural life right now? He takes us back to the dusty wilderness of Numbers to reveal that the secret to surviving today is looking backward by faith.
Here is why you cannot miss this class:
1. THE 49-SQUARE-MILE CAMP John Barnett loves to bring the Bible to life with numbers, and this class is a masterpiece of biblical geography. He reconstructs the Camp of Israel: 603,000 families, 3 million people, and a footprint of 7 miles by 7 miles. You will realize for the first time that if you were camped on the edge of the tribe of Dan, you were 3.5 miles away from the Tabernacle. This sets the stage for a life-or-death problem.
2. THE DYING UNCLE SCENARIO Prepare for a visceral illustration that you will never forget. John paints the scene of a beloved uncle bitten by a fiery serpent—foaming at the mouth, vomiting, eyes rolling back, and body contorting in paralysis. When you scream at him to "Look at the Serpent," he can’t see a 10-foot pole from 3 miles away. John uses this terrifying scene to explain exactly what Saving Faith is: It isn’t seeing with your eyes; it is turning your heart in the direction of God’s promise.
3. THE "ARM’S REACH" DOCTRINE John connects the Wilderness Camp to Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill (Acts 17). While the Israelites were miles away from the cure, Paul reveals that the Creator God is now "within an arm’s reach" of every person on earth. Whether you are dealing with a "Daniel at Starbucks" or a family member who is spiritually foaming at the mouth, this class gives you the confidence to point them to the Savior who is closer than they think.
4. THE GALATIANS 2:20 SECRET How do you walk in Christ? John explains that it is the exact same mechanism as how you received Him. Just as the Israelite looked at a pole he couldn’t see to be healed, we look back at a Cross we never saw to be saved and to be sanctified. Discover the power of living a life today that is entirely based on a "2,000-year-old event."
THE BOTTOM LINE: You don’t have to physically see the Cross to be changed by it. Join John Barnett to learn how to stop looking at the snakebite of sin and start looking at the Savior who took the poison for you.
