Preacher: Tim Baron | Overview of Leviticus

Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence

 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

John 1:14

From Tim: This Sunday we're kicking off a new sermon series in the book of Leviticus: Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence.

Leviticus might not be the part of the Bible we naturally turn to first, but it's a vital part of God's story. It gives us a rich and compelling vision of what it means and what it costs for a Holy God to dwell with his people.

This first week will be an introduction, helping us get our bearings and see the big picture. We'll trace how Leviticus fits within the wider story of the Bible, seek to understand its purpose, and discover how it points us to Jesus.

I'm hoping this sets us up well for the rest of the series where we will get into more of the detail.

Looking forward to beginning this together.
