Warm-Up for Sunday: Our world is about to experience a global event that will change our calendar. In just a few days we will enter a new year, but how should we enter? A new year was given birth for the ancient Israelites by the power of the lamb’s blood and the death of many firstborn. As a result, the people of God began a whole new life but not without its obstacles. Join me this coming Sunday as we see God lead His people into a new year and a new life. Perhaps we’ll learn how we should enter this coming new year. To be prepared please read Exodus 12-14.
