God cared deeply about where and how His chosen people worshipped Him. This week, Pastor Jim continues our series on Deuteronomy. He talks about the life and final words of Moses, as well as why the Promised Land was such an important place to God. He also discusses what it means for us today to worship God in the place where He dwells.

You've Already Won
May 12, 2024 • Connor Kraus • Deuteronomy 20:1–4, Ephesians 6:10–13, Revelation 20:7–10
When the Israelites entered the promised land, they were thrown into the middle of an ancient war. Today, we continue fighting that same war. In this week’s sermon, Pastor Connor looks at the battle instructions God provided to his people in Deuteronomy, as well as how those instructions apply to our toughest battles today. (Spoiler alert: Our side has already won!)
A Prophet in my Name
May 5, 2024 • Connor Kraus • John 7:40–41, Deuteronomy 18:15–19, Jeremiah 23:16–17, Deuteronomy 34:9–10, John 1:19–22
When the Israelites heard God’s voice and saw the great fire of His glory in Horeb, they cried out for someone who could survive God’s presence and deliver his messages to them. For a while, that person was Moses. But who would bring God’s word to His people after Moses died? In this message from Deuteronomy 18, Pastor Connor looks at the guidelines God gave for recognizing prophets. He also talks about the promise that God made to raise up a perfect prophet after Moses’s death, and what all this means for us today.
Release The Slaves
April 28, 2024 • Connor Kraus • Deuteronomy 15:12–18, Matthew 19:7–8, 1 Corinthians 7:20–24, Romans 6:16–23
Throughout human history, slavery has taken a terrible toll on human dignity and flourishing. So why does Scripture use it to describe our relationship with both God and sin? As he continues our series on Deuteronomy, Pastor Connor discusses the instructions that God gave his people around slavery. He also talks about slavery in the New Testament, as well as the wisdom in Bob Dylan’s observation, “You’re gonna have to serve somebody.”
