March 20, 2025

Summary

The greater our dreams and hopes, the greater the possibility of deep bitterness and disappointment. It’s God’s intention that the disappointments in life not make us bitter, but make us better. In this message from Exodus 15, Pastor Lutzer captures three snapshots of Israel in the desert. Why did God lead them to the place of bitterness?

Getting Closer To God

Whether we struggle to find time for God, feel abandoned when we don't feel His presence, or experience seasons of spiritual drought, God is reaching out for us. From the life of Moses, Pastor Lutzer shows us how to identify and overcome the obstacles that keep us from drawing near to God. God invites us to experience an intimate friendship.
