Our Leviticus series looks at the Day of Atonement. We see how Jesus is both sacrifice and scapegoat, how his death at Calvary covers the world’s sin, and how we need to follow Jesus outside the camp and into a broken world.
A Leviticus encouragement: How are communion services deepened and shaped by these OT pictures of sin, sacrifice, and atonement?

Our Leviticus series looks at the OT priestly role. We learn that the priestly system showed God’s intended creation, points to Jesus as fulfillment and perfection, and anticipates how we now are called to be a priestly offering to God.
A Leviticus encouragement: Because we are called to be a ‘royal priesthood,’ how can we faithfully represent Jesus in all areas of our lives?

We start our Leviticus series by looking at right and pleasing worship. We learn that it requires full and complete devotion, attention needs to paid to living this kind of life, and all these OT offerings point us to Jesus, who himself was pleasing to the Father.
A Leviticus encouragement: In order to worship God in spirit and truth, we need a new heart and value system through the gospel of Jesus.

As we celebrate Thanksgiving this weekend, we look at 1 Thess 5 on ‘Actions of Grace.’ We learn to resolutely focus on God, discern freedom and accountability, and pray anticipating that God is working already within us.
A Recipe for Giving Thanks: With the Spirit’s discernment and following the example of Jesus, we warn, encourage, help, and be patient with God’s people.
