Loneliness and isolation are rampant in our society. How do we move from loneliness and isolation to community and connection? The answer is living into our identities as God's children and being a part of God's new family.

God hates all that damages, deforms, and divides humanity. God longs for us to flourish in healthy communities. The seven things God hates described in Proverbs 6:16-19 contribute to breaking down the peaceful and healthy relationships in which God intends us to live. God is committed to wholeness in our relationships and thus is implacably opposed to socially destructive human failings and sins.

In this sermon series, we are looking at the wilderness experience of the Israelites as they leave Egypt, wander in the wilderness, and reach the Promised Land. There is a lot we can learn from their journey!

Jesus has supremely revealed God’s glory to us and made God’s glory visible in his body, his flesh. Jesus’ first disciples saw God’s glory with their own eyes. In Jesus, God’s glory walked the earth.

“And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14)
