This past Sunday, guest preacher Ray shared from 1 Corinthians 10:1–14 about the battle in our minds. He reminded us that our worldview must begin with God, allowing His truth to shape how we think, live, and respond to temptation.

What is your golden calf? In Exodus 32, Israel turns from trusting God to worshiping an idol made by their own hands. This message challenges us to examine what we trust for our happiness, security, and significance—and points us to Jesus, who forgives our sin and brings us near to God.

What does it mean to live in the presence of a holy God? Join us as we explore how God teaches his people to worship, serve, and rest. And, how these instructions point us to Jesus, who opens the way into God’s presence.

In Exodus 28–29, God appoints, clothes, and consecrates priests to serve him on behalf of his people so that he may dwell among them. Their ministry points us to Jesus, our perfect High Priest, who offered himself once for all for our sins. Through Christ, we too belong to God and are set apart for his service. Clothed with Christ and responding to God’s mercy, we are called to offer our whole lives in worship, use our gifts, and share in serving the church and those around us.

What do an ancient tent, its furnishings, and a torn curtain have to do with Jesus? In Exodus 25–27, the tabernacle reveals God’s desire to dwell with his people—and the separation caused by sin. Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, the way to the Father is opened. Explore how the tabernacle points us to Christ and the invitation to draw near to God through him.

In Exodus 25, God invites Israel to generously provide for the building of the tabernacle—the place where He would dwell among them. But before Israel ever gave to God, God had already generously provided for them. In this message, we’ll see how God’s grace moves the hearts of His people toward willing, joyful, and sacrificial generosity.

How can ordinary, sinful people share a meal in the presence of a holy God? In Exodus 24, God confirms his covenant with Israel and welcomes their leaders to eat and drink before him. This remarkable moment reveals the purpose of his rescue: bringing his people into fellowship with himself. Through the covenant blood, the shared meal, and God’s overwhelming glory, we look ahead to Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice opens the way into God’s presence—and to the coming joy of the marriage supper of the Lamb.

What defines your identity? As Christians, we are thankful for the place God has called us to live, but our ultimate citizenship is in heaven. Join us this Sunday in Philippians 3:17–21 as we discover what it means to live as faithful citizens of heaven while eagerly awaiting the return of our Savior.

Where does the hope of a nation truly lie? In this message from Psalm 33, we reflect on our nation's 250th anniversary through the lens of God's Word. While we can give thanks for God's providence and the freedoms we enjoy, our ultimate hope is not found in any nation, government, or political leader—it is found in Jesus Christ alone. May we be a faithful gospel witness, praying for revival and shining the light of Christ in our communities until He returns.

God not only tells us who to worship but also how we are to worship Him. In Exodus 20:22–26, we discover that true worship is shaped by God's Word, marked by reverence, and centered on the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The God of Sinai is holy. In Exodus 19, God's presence causes a mountain to tremble, yet this same God calls His people to draw near and reflect His holiness. Discover how God's holiness reveals His greatness, exposes our need, and points us to Jesus Christ, our perfect Mediator. 📖 Exodus 19:16–25 | The Holiness of God

In Exodus 19, Israel arrives at Mount Sinai where God prepares them to enter into covenant relationship with Him. Before giving the Law, God reminds His people that He has carried them on "eagles' wings" and brought them to Himself. This chapter reveals that God's salvation is about more than rescue from bondage—it is about reconciliation and relationship with God. In this message, we explore God's faithfulness to His promises, His calling for His people to be a holy nation and kingdom of priests, the reverence due His holy presence, and the need for a mediator. Ultimately, Exodus 19 points us to Jesus Christ, the greater Mediator who brings sinners into fellowship with God.

n Exodus 18, we see God’s faithfulness on display as Jethro hears of the Lord’s mighty deliverance and joins Israel in worship. This chapter reminds us that while we are limited people, God graciously strengthens His people through shared ministry and community. Connecting Exodus 18 with Ephesians 4:11–14, this message explores how God uses the church to help the church—equipping believers to bear burdens, build one another up, and grow together in Christ. We also see a beautiful picture of the gospel as people from different backgrounds gather together in fellowship, pointing ultimately to the future marriage supper of the Lamb.

In Exodus 17, Israel faces thirst in the wilderness and attack from the Amalekites, yet God faithfully provides water from the rock and victory over their enemies. In this message, we see how the rock points us to Jesus Christ—the Rock who was struck for sinners so that living water and the Holy Spirit might be given to His people. As we reflect on Pentecost Sunday, we are reminded that the Christian life is a wilderness journey, but God provides, sustains, and fights for His people until they safely reach the Promised Land.

After celebrating God’s deliverance at the Red Sea, Israel quickly begins to grumble in the wilderness when faced with thirst and hunger. In Exodus 15:22–16:36, we see both the weakness of God’s people and the faithful provision of God. This message explores how the wilderness reveals our need to trust the Lord daily and ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the true Living Water and Bread of Life who fully satisfies His people.
