“Deuteronomy: Purpose & Practice”(Deuteronomy 1:1-8)”, Will DuVal | 1/11/26

It’s often said that “those who don’t learn from the past are doomed to repeat it”. Yet many of us in the modern world are ignorant of history, preferring instead the recent and “relevant”. God’s word declares “Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways” (Ps 128:1). Yet we repeatedly disobey God, at times without even knowing “his ways”. God assures us “I know the plans I have for you… to give you a future and a hope” (Jer 29:11). Yet we are often quick to forget God’s promises, and live in fear and worry instead. Remembrance. Obedience. Faith. God wants each of these virtues for each of us, His people. And He offers them to us in the book of Deuteronomy. Even more importantly, God offers us Himself here: His law, His love, and His invitation to relationship. Join us for this sermon as we begin our journey together through this beautiful book of the Bible!
