What's a more generic way to refer to stories common to both Jewish and Christian scripture? Seven years of Catholic school have programmed me to say "According to the Old Testament tale of Blah and the blah blah," but quite often I'd rather point at a broader context.

Maybe "Judeo-Christian"? One of my theology classes in college (a Catholic university) was titled "Judeo-Christian Somethingorother", and I think we only covered Old Testament stuff.
