Today I have one big long spark for you in which I begin talking about the rule in Leviticus regarding men’s hair and end with a discussion of what it means for God to judge our hearts. And I have an announcement to make. Due to changes in my life, I will be unable to continue doing the podcast. I will keep the podcast active for a few weeks after this episode goes live for those who don’t listen right away, but this will be the last episode that I will make. If you liked this podcast you will probably like the Abide podcast by the Maxwell Institute. They also try to keep their episodes on the shorter side and link to their sources as well for further reading. I have loved making these episodes for the past few years and I hope I have been a help in your gospel study and journey coming unto Christ.
