Exodus ends with the tabernacle created, but Moses unable to enter. Numbers begins with God speaking to Moses inside the tabernacle. What happens in between is God’s gracious provision for intimacy with His people. This Lenten series walks through Leviticus as a great chiasm centered on the Day of Atonement, showing how God provides a way for His holy presence to dwell with His people. As we progress, we’ll see how Christ provides the ultimate atonement, cleansing us once for all, so that we can be His royal priesthood.

Into the Desolate Place

A time of solemn reflection and worship as we gather to remember the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made on the cross. We will pause together in the darkness of Good Friday, holding space for grief and gratitude before the joy of Easter Sunday.
Disorder in the Tent
March 22, 2026Pastor:Jeff Schultz
Sermon Notes
It seems more obvious than ever what’s broken in the world around us; I know it’s harder to face what’s broken inside me. We explore how the disorder of the fall reaches to our most personal and private places. But that is also where Jesus isn’t embarrassed to meet us — with cleansing, restoration, and hope.
Disorder in the Camp
March 15, 2026Pastor:Nick Carter
Sermon Notes
I can give no better commendation than this from Dr. Thomas Constable: “Leviticus 19 has been called the highest development of ethics in the Old Testament. This chapter, perhaps better than any other in the Bible, explains what it meant for Israel to be a holy nation.”
Clean & Unclean
March 8, 2026Pastor:Nick Carter
Sermon Notes
We come to Leviticus 11—the dietary food laws—paired with 20:22-26. As I have been preparing to preach this text, I find myself relieved that such laws don’t apply to me. But, why is that my first reaction? Where does the longing for a life unencumbered and un-imposed-on by God’s standards come from? With the rigid purity laws of the Old Testament no longer in view for the church, it becomes harder—not easier—to live a distinctive life that reflects God, “who has separated you from the peoples” (Lev. 20:24).
Mediators of Atonement
March 1, 2026Pastor:Nathan Kingsley
Sermon Notes
As we jump into week two in our Lent series in Leviticus, we are confronted with the question: How can sinful humans offer sacrifices to a holy God and be forgiven? The answer is through a mediator, which is through the initiative of God. The priests of the tribe of Levi were holy (set apart) for this exact purpose, and their lives had to reflect their calling and their purpose. Today, we don’t have priests, because we have our great High Priest in Jesus, who was and is a holy mediator on our behalf. He has made us holy and keeps us holy, so that we then can represent God’s holiness and grace to the world around us as the holy priesthood that exists in Christ.
Ash Wednesday 2026
February 18, 2026Pastor:Jeff Schultz
Sermon Notes
This service – and the season of Lent – remind believers of our mortality and call us to prayer in preparation for Easter. But the power of Ash Wednesday doesn’t depend on church history or liturgy. What’s at the center of Ash Wednesday’s meaning and power are the plain and timeless word uttered as ashes are marked on the forehead: Remember you are dust, and to dust you will return.
