Living Faithfully in the Wilderness

Pastor Haylee continues to explore the parallels between the book of Exodus and the book of Acts, framing the Christian life as a journey through a symbolic wilderness situated between current reality and future promise. She suggests that navigating this "now but not yet" phase requires a proactive faith characterized by continual prayer and a commitment to looking intently for God’s presence in the mundane. Central to this journey is the necessity of constant unity, emphasizing that the support of a church community is most vital when an individual’s personal connection to the divine feels strained. Ultimately, she encourages believers to move from bondage toward a promised land by remaining spiritually curious and communal during seasons of uncertainty.
