Is God's Presence A Desirable Thing? (Exodus 20:21-26) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 14, 2022

Exodus puts two pictures of God, back to back. In #1, God is glorious, and "big," and scary. In #2, God also offers to come and be present in worship. Is this offer something we should want?

When God Brings The Hail (Exodus 9:13-35) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2022
