The kindergarten teacher kept saying: just don’t color outside the lines, but in adult life, crossing the line costs far more than a ruined picture. This sermon takes us to Mount Sinai, where Israel, fresh from making a covenant with God, casts a golden calf and starts worshiping its own image of God (Exodus 32). We will see how easily we create gods shaped by our own fantasies, and how much chasing an illusion really costs. Listen and find out why Christ crossed the line between life and death, so that anyone who has lost their way can find the road back.
Don’t Cross the Line
Exodus
We live in a world where the stronger often prevail, and they are the ones who are right. That is why we wonder if there is any hope for those whose voices no one heeds, and who do not have enough strength to stand up for themselves. The Book of Exodus tells the story of how God intervenes in the lives of slaves to make them His people, give them a new identity, and teach them how to live their daily lives with Him. And that, after all, is what we all need on our journey through life.
