Listen "Exodus: The Proposal"
Episode Synopsis
In this message, Andrew unpacks Exodus 19 as the pivotal moment when Yahweh proposes covenant union with His people, revealing that Exodus is not merely a rescue story—it’s a love story. After delivering Israel from slavery, God invites them into a sacred relationship, offering not just rules, but identity and vocation: to be His treasured possession and a kingdom of priests. This covenant mirrors a wedding proposal, calling for wholehearted devotion rather than passive belief. Though God's holiness is overwhelming, the message of the New Covenant through Jesus is that we are no longer held at a distance. In Christ, we move from trembling at the base of the mountain to bold access in the presence of God. Worship becomes our response to divine love, not out of fear, but from joy and freedom, as we receive both our identity and purpose in Him.
