The Book of Psalms is the Holy Spirit-inspired hymnal of the church. Here, in the final Psalm, the book comes to a close with a crescendo of praise! On this Thanksgiving Sunday, we look into how we can apply this Psalm to the church today. Psalm 150
This morning our text is going to point us to a silent killer that is wreaking havoc in our homes. This is a silent killer that wiped out an entire GENERATION of Israelites. This is a silent killer that Jesus warned us about with startlingly abrupt language and yet, it is a silent killer that […]
The book of Jonah is essentially a story about a prophet who failed to wrap his mind around the breadth of God’s character. In particular, Jonah knew about God’s mercy, but he simply couldn’t understand how God’s mercy could coexist with another aspect of God’s character that he loved – God’s justice. Jonah 3:1-10

The Israelites needed to be led, and in Leviticus 8-10 we find God’s gracious provision. This morning we are going to look to Leviticus 8-10 and we are going to ask the question: “What does the Law teach us about Leadership?”
