Sin effectively distances us from God, pushing us into exile from his kingdom. Jesus is the one who brings us back. Pastor Ryan traces the idea of exile through the entire Old Testament and into our lives.

Pastor Ryan’s sermon “Those Dry Bones” talks about times in our lives that seem dry, like the dry bones in Ezekiel’s vision. The good news is that God can and will breathe new life into dry bones, just like he did at creation. What can we do to allow this to happen in our lives?

Acts 2:16-21 (NLT) / 使 徒 行 傳 2:16-21 (CUVS)
