Before we launch our next sermon series on the Parables of Jesus called He Gave Us Stories, we’re making two quick pitstops over the next two weeks. This week takes us into an Old Testament story most people skim past: Israel in the wilderness, a complaint that costs more than they expect, and a strange object lifted up on a pole that becomes the picture of healing. It’s the story behind a symbol you’ve seen 1000 times and probably never connected to Scripture. Jesus said this moment points to him. Come find out why; and what it asks of us.
From the Wilderness to the Cross – Numbers 21:4-9
