Pastor of Formation & Mission Benjamin Kandt continues our fall series, Leviticus Is For Lovers, preaching from a selection of texts from Leviticus 10-15. Drawing on Jonathan Haidt's moral foundations theory, he uncovers how the principles in this section of Leviticus still echo in our political landscapes and personal beliefs, urging us to rethink the relevance of biblical concepts in today's world.

Pastor Ben then focuses on the thematic verse, Leviticus 10:10, to unravel the clear lines between the holy and the common, the clean and unclean. He explains the temporal nature of these laws, reflecting on their intended purpose from Moses to Jesus, and how they underscored the uniqueness of God's covenant with Israel.

By exploring Jesus' teachings on internal transformation, Pastor Ben highlights how His sacrifice offers true purification and freedom from guilt, providing hope and healing even at our lowest moments. Jesus's compassion invites us to break free from shame and embrace the grace and holiness at the heart of the Christian faith.
