A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Chris will take us to one of the most loved and comforting of the Psalms, Psalm 23, “The Lord Is My Shepherd”. It is believed that David wrote this Psalm when he was King of Israel. Obviously, he had grown in his personal relationship with the Lord and reflected on his days as a shepherd. As you read and study Psalm 23 this week, ask this question: “Who was his audience?”.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As we continue our summer message series, “Behind the Veil, Exalting Christ through the entire Bible”, we will open to 2 Samuel 7:1-17. David had a heart to build a house for the Lord, but God had much greater plans than a house of cedar. In this scripture, God makes with David a covenant. A promise of a Kingdom from David’s house that will last forever and a Messiah that will reign forever.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Dave will take us to Deuteronomy where Moses says, “The Lord God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you”. As you read the section of scripture, Deuteronomy 18:15-22, look for the characteristics of the prophet that Moses speaks of. How beautiful is the Word of God where, over 1,300 years prior to the birth of Christ, the prophecy of His incarnation is spoken of.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Dave will have us look in Hebrews where a central theme is the “Priesthood of Jesus Christ”. As you read and study our selected scripture, chapter 4:14 – 5:10, here are some questions you might ask. In Exodus 28, Aaron was chosen by God to be “high priest”, selected from men to minister for men. His main task was to offer sacrifices acceptable to God. What makes Jesus Christ our “High Priest” different? If you want to dig a little deeper, what does it mean when God said, “You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek”?

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As we continue our summer series, Pastor Dave will expose and teach on the messages in the story of the Passover. Please read the entirety of Exodus chapter 12. As you do, keep in mind how Christ is being revealed. Look at how, in God’s very specific instruction, the Jewish people were protected from His judgement that Passover night.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As Pastor Chris returns from an exciting week at Mt. Top Bible Camp, he will be giving us a glimpse of what the kids have learned! His lessons will have included rich teachings from Genesis 6:1-9:17, the story of “Noah and the Flood”. As you read and prepare for his message, keep in mind our message series theme, “Christ in the Old Testament”. This is more than a story about an ark and a flood. It is a story of a faithful man and the saving grace of our Lord.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Dave will have us in Exodus where God said to Moses, “And let them (people of Israel) make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst”. As you read Exodus 25-27, familiarize yourselves with the blueprints of the tabernacle. Then continue in your bible to read of the construction of the tabernacle, Exodus 35-40. Study and pray as to why this event played such a critical place in the worship of God’s people.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As we continue in our summer series, “Christ in the Old Testament” this Sunday, we will look at our focus scripture of Exodus 17:1-7. In this account, the people of Israel were thirsting. God directed Moses to strike the rock which miraculously began to flow with “living water” for all to receive. As you read and study this section of scripture, think and pray for its deeper meaning and the spiritual thirst that is permanently quenched by the “living water” for those who believe in Jesus.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." Our message series “Christ in the Old Testament” will continue Sunday with a focus scripture of 1 Peter 2:4-8. In this text, the book of Isaiah is quoted, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone.” God is telling us that in His grand plan there is the one main building block, Jesus Christ the “Living Stone”, on which a new spiritual temple will be built one believer at a time. Take time this week praying over this scripture and other related references in your bible.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." On Sunday, we will continue with the message series, “Christ in the Old Testament.” Pastor Chris will take us to Romans 5:12-21. In this scripture, we have “one man” the First Adam and the Last Adam, “one man” Jesus Christ. The first Adam was given dominion over the old creation; he sinned and lost his kingdom. Jesus Christ the Last Adam came as King over a new creation and undid all the damage that the First Adam’s sin effected. As you read, pray, and study over this portion of God’s word, keep in mind how in God’s plan Jesus Christ was the preeminent even as events in the Garden played out.
