This sermon was given by Phil Hopgood, who speaks about the significance of the Passover and how it foreshadows the death and resurrection of Jesus.

This week’s sermon was given by Owen Hylton, who returned to the book of Exodus, chapter 6, highlighting the challenges faced by the Israelites and the call to obedience.

Moses encourages...
