Failure and Faithfulness in the Wilderness

Numbers

August 26, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Numbers

Today we continue our series through the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch. Building on Genesis-Leviticus, Numbers recounts Israel’s journey from Sinai to the the plains of Moab, along with an unexpected 40-year disciplinary detour. It is a book about the failure of God’s people and the steadfast faithfulness of God.

In the Beginning

August 5, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Genesis

Today we begin a new series through the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch. This will be a five-week overview series, during which we’ll spend one week on each book. We begin our study with Genesis, the (true) story of beginnings. Grasping the big picture of this book is crucial for understanding the rest of the Bible—and also your life and that’s no small matter. Genesis takes us deep, fast.

Be Holy, for I am Holy

August 19, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Leviticus

Today we continue our series through the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch. This is a five-week overview series, during which we’ll spend one week on each book. Today we land on Leviticus, one of the most neglected books of the Bible. Building on Genesis and Exodus, Leviticus recounts God’s call for his newly-forged people to, “Be holy, as he is holy.” Holiness isn’t a popular topic today, but it should be. God’s holiness is not dry, lifeless, and sterile but pulsates with life, pleasure, and joy—and he invites us to share in it with him.

Sovereignly Saved for God's Glory

August 12, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Exodus

Today we continue our new series through the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch. This is a five-week overview series, during which we’ll spend one week on each book. Today we reach Exodus. Building on Genesis, Exodus continues to unfold the (true) story of how God sovereignly saves his people for his glory. He did then—and he does today. Exodus reveals God is not small and powerless, but sovereign and glorious. He is not meant to be a footnote to our lives, but our very lives.
