Uncovering the Beauty of Old Testament Typology, Foreshadowing & Buried Treasure
Welcome! I’m Beth. Have you ever wondered how the messy, ancient, and dramatic stories of the Old Testament point directly to Jesus Christ? I’ve discovered that Scripture is like an ocean where a toddler can paddle safely, but a deep-sea diver can explore forever without hitting bottom.
Grab a warm cup of coffee, open your Bible, and let’s go hunting for gospel treasure together!

Meet Beth
I’m a Yankee by birth, Okie by choice, wife, mom of three adult children, Oma to seven sweet grandkids, and a decidedly imperfect follower of Jesus.
For years, I loved deeply studying my Bible and journaling about everything I was learning. In 2026, those passions collided when I fell head-over-heels in love with searching for Jesus in the Old Testament through foreshadowing and typology. My prayer for this blog is simple: I hope you enjoy the things I find to write about, but more than anything else… I hope you see Jesus.
