Yahweh





Exodus 34:6-7 is probably the most quoted Bible passage by the Bible. In these verses, God shares His name with Moses. What God reveals to Moses is much more than a name, God shares His character and identity which define Him to the core.


When God reveals His name, Yahweh, the question He answers isn’t necessarily what He should be called, but rather, what He is like. The answer: God is personal, relational, and approachable. God is a person. This changes how we relate to Him.

Forgiving Iniquity, Rebellion, and Sin





"Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished..." There are many things in the Bible that are difficult to reconcile with our modern Western view of the world.

In this sermon, rather than shy away, we attempt to understand who God is on his own terms and what it means for you and me as we follow Jesus.





Carry The NAme





What God wants for us is not just to know about God, but to look and be like Him. We are created in His image and our everyday lives should show the world what He is like.
