Continuing our series in the book of Numbers. In chapters 25-26, Israel joins themselves with the Moabites in idolatry and sexual immorality. In this lesson, we consider what we can learn from Israel’s sin, the solution of Phinehas’ jealousy and the second census of the nation afterward.

Continuing our series in the book of Numbers. In chapters 22-24, the king of Moab calls for Balaam to curse Israel. Balaam was a Gentile prophet of God and he always seems to confess a great respect for the authority of God’s word — but every reference to Balaam in the New Testament portrays him as an example of apostasy. In this lesson, we consider what we can learn from Balaam’s hypocrisy and the blessings God pronounced on Israel through him.
Paul’s letter to the Galatians tends to be under-appreciated because it deals with issues that can seem to be less relevant than the other epistles, and it contains arguments that can be challenging to navigate. Despite these challenges, the letter to the Galatians is not only needfully relevant, it is also incredibly rich in unique lessons that equip us to understand the freedom we have through Jesus Christ. In this lesson, we consider this passage in Galatians and draw lessons from Paul’s jealousy for the freedom that God had granted these Christians through the gospel. The first in a series in the book of Galatians.
