## Resource

The God who went before you Preacher: Andrew Southerton Date: 26⧸04⧸2026 Series: Choose Life Reading: Deut 4:1-40 At Mount Sinai, surrounded by fire and darkness, Israel experienced something remarkable, there was no image, no statue, just a voice. So what does it mean that God reveals himself through words rather than what we can see or feel? This message from Deuteronomy 4 explores what that means for us today.
