  • Love In Leviticus

    In this episode of The Canvascast, we dive deep into the book of Leviticus 14 and explore its profound spiritual significance. We also breakdown how the physical cleansing of a leper in the Old Testament mirrors the spiritual redemption we receive through Christ.


    Join us as we discuss:

    • The six parallels between Old Testament cleansing and salvation in Christ.

    • How God speaks to us today—through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and people in our lives.

    • The barriers that keep us from hearing God’s voice and how to overcome them.

    • What it truly means to serve in the Kingdom of God in our everyday work and life.

    • How faith guides our steps, using Joshua’s journey as a powerful example.

    • The significance of oil over the blood—how the Holy Spirit keeps our faith fresh and alive.


    Key Takeaways:

    • The Old Testament is rich with spiritual symbolism pointing to Jesus.

    • God’s voice is clear and always aligns with His Word.

    • Distractions and past hurt can block us from hearing God, but He still pursues us.

    • Whatever our job or role, we are first and foremost disciples of Christ.

    • The Holy Spirit convicts and guides us, keeping our faith vibrant.
