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.

More from Deuteronomy - A Call to Faithfulness

The Death of Moses

May 26, 2024 • Connor Kraus • Deuteronomy 34

Connor Kraus wraps up our Deuteronomy series with a look at the end of Moses' life. We get a glimpse into the unique and spiritually intimate relationship between God and Moses. Despite Moses' status, we learn that even he had to endure the consequences of his sin and only peer over, rather than enter into, the Promised Land. And Connor challenges us with the notion that our reaction to this scene says much about our faith.

The Song of Moses

May 19, 2024 • Jim Congdon • Deuteronomy

Songs communicate with us at a deep level, so it’s no surprise that God inspired Moses to include one at the very end of Deuteronomy. This week, Pastor Jim walks us through the famous Song of Moses, which some have called the Israelites’ national anthem. He discusses the song’s structure, its poetry, and what it teaches us about God’s plan to redeem the world.

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!)
