Observation 1: Commandments Come From Above

In a secular, post-Christian society like the one we find ourselves living in, the Ten Commandments aren't exactly popular. Cries to "live your own truth" threaten to drown out the absolute truth of God's law. But how can we expect to love each other well without parameters for what that actually looks like in practice? In this week's message from Exodus 19–20, Pastor J.D. shows us how the Ten Commandments are designed to help us flourish, experiencing God's creation as it was truly intended to be. True freedom, it turns out, isn't found in the absence of God's law, but in the embracing of it.
