Scripture: Leviticus 26-27 Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 26-27 that God’s surprising approach to helping us grow involves giving us His Word and His promise to bless obedience.

Scripture: Leviticus 23:15-44 Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 23:15-44 and the feasts of Israel how we can find the secret of satisfaction. Remembering from where God has brought us, and in expectation of where He will call us one day, sincerely give Him thanks.

Scripture: Leviticus 23:1-3 Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 23:1-3 that believers celebrate God’s Sabbath rest by resting in Christ’s finished work on the cross. In our lives, we should also insist on a regular cessation, and trust God with what is undone.

Scripture: Leviticus 21-22 Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 21-22 what worship really is. It isn’t just singing or music on Sundays. In fact, there is no division between our spiritual life and our secular life. Our entire life is a worship service to God.

Scripture: Leviticus 13–15 Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 13–15 that our lives are in God’s hands.

What God requires of us, God provides for us—but we must accept it by faith.
