On today’s episode, an exciting walk through the entire BOOK OF LEVITICUS! We get to see how God’s “WAY” worked for both Israel and for us as believers today, by providing first access into His Holy presence through SACRIFICE & SANTIFICATION. This is done in the Old Testament for God’s chosen nation through actual feasts, sacrifices, and rigorous law-abiding practices but in the New Testament, and completed by the substitute sacrifice of Jesus Christ and His death at the cross. Plus, two key verses, one major focal point, and one truth about God’s love from a favorite book and author! Welcome to the SAFE SPACE. Listen and be encouraged that you are not alone.
