The people of Israel were doomed and the plague was spreading rapidly among them until Aaron ran into their midst with their salvation in his hands. This is the calling we must accept to all the world, to go with the Gospel and rescue those who are perishing.

The people of Israel rallied to go and fight the enemy, but it was too little too late. They only believed in victory after they had been punished by God. God wants us to trust him by faith, not by sight.

In this episode of Off Script, Pastor Jared recaps a recent experience he had at a Krispy Kreme and some of the spiritual lessons that can be learned from it.

In this first episode of Off Script, Pastor Jared walks us through some of the common arguments for and against abortion.
