In this sermon Pastor Nikayla unpacks Numbers 20 which begins with the death of Miriam and ends with the death of Aaron. In between the death of the two important character is a strange event involving a rock that gushes forth with water after mysteriously drying up. Moses does something wrong and he's told he won't make it into the Promised Land. 

Nikayla walks us through some Rabbinical readings of the rock situation and the connection between Miriam and the water. Paul seems to know these Jewish traditions because he also thinks the rock followed the people around. 

Do you think that God abandons you or distances Godself from you when you're not actively seeking God? 

What would change for you if you knew that God was there regardless of anything you could ever do or say? 

Do you believe God is with you? Do we* believe God is with us*?
