Good fences make good neighbors. This is also true with good life boundaries.

In today’s sermon, we continue to travel with the Children of Israel as they move through the wilderness following their flight from Egypt. They discover that freedom is not quite what they expect. God provides an intervention that becomes a blessing.

Dr. Jordan guides us along this wilderness journey and reminds us of the history-making provisions of God that continue to impact our lives even today.

Join us to learn of our history, to appreciate our struggles, and to be inspired for our future.
