Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Oct 26, 2008

The Book of Leviticus is, arguably , one of the least read books of the old testament. However, there are some precious lessons for us Christians in this book. This book teaches us about Experiencing the Presence of the Lord, Honoring Him with meaningful

Getting Close to my God - Part I Some old testament books are never read. The book of Leviticus could well qualify for that award. I am sure many of us sitting here would not even have read it once.

The High Priest Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Aug 29, 2012

Today’s message is in some ways going to sound like last week’s in term’s of what our high priest has done. But I also want to make this very practical in terms of what Peter says in 1 Peter chapter 2 about the body of believers being a royal priesthood.

Priests in the Old Testament were very exclusive, and could only come from the family of Aaron and the tribe of Levi. There ...read more
