While the Old Testament books are directed to the people of Israel, they also bear great significance for Christians who can decipher in Old Testament writings the gradual phases of God’s salvific plan. In The Old Testament in the Light of the New: The Stages of God’s Plan by Stephen B. Clark, the author provides a comprehensive presentation of how and why the Old Testament forms part of the Christian Bible and offers a program for how to read the Old as a Christian—namely, in the light of the New.

Stephen B. Clark is the former President of Sword of the Spirit, an international ecumenical Christian community. He is currently a regional missionary coordinator in the community. In addition to lecturing regularly around the world, Clark is the author of many books, including Baptized in the Spirit, Building Christian Communities, Redeemer, and Man and Woman in Christ. He resides in Chelsea, Michigan.
