The Exodus and Jubilee ft. Dr. John Bergsma – Series on Jesus and the Jubilee (Part 4)
What does true freedom look like, and how can we restore what was lost? In the Book of Exodus, the Israelites’ journey from slavery to freedom is a profound story of spiritual liberation. Led by Moses, they confront the oppressive forces of Egypt and experience God’s miraculous intervention through the plagues, ultimately leading to their escape and journey toward the Promised Land. This story is about historical events and humanity’s ongoing struggle for freedom, forgiveness, and a deeper relationship with God. The Exodus story reminds us that liberation is possible and that we can reclaim what was lost through God—freedom, family, and fullness. In this episode, with our special guest, Dr. John Bergsma, we will reflect on the importance of the Exodus story in relation to this Jubilee year.

Rethink Growth

House of Prayer, Not Den of Thieves
Sometimes we need someone to fight for us, to respond forcefully to injustice in our lives. Jesus does this, as he did in the temple – He’s not afraid to clean house.
