Leviticus 16 is the heart of the Torah - and it's all about Jesus. Hosts Jenna Wright and Pastor Matt Looloian dive into the Day of Atonement. This ancient ritual, with its purification and scapegoat, was just a shadow. Jesus is the substance. He achieved Complete Atonement, a one-time act that: Satisfied God's Wrath (Propitiation). Removed Our Sin (Expiation). The result? Full Assurance! No more fear. We can approach God with confidence in our repentance and prayer. What about the "Heavenly Things"? That's us. Jesus's blood purified us, preparing us to dwell with a holy God forever. Your Homework: Read Leviticus 16 alongside Hebrews 9 & 10 this week. Stop fearing—start living in the freedom of full forgiveness.
In this sermon on Leviticus 16: The Day of Atonement, Pastor Matt Looloian reveals God's answer to our greatest dilemma: how sinful people can be in relationship with a holy God. He unpacks the ancient ritual's three phases—purification, the scapegoat, and burnt offerings—which gave the Israelites complete assurance of atonement. Then, he shows how this ritual is perfectly fulfilled in the Final Day of Atonement: Good Friday. Jesus Christ, our Great High Priest, secured eternal redemption by His own blood, serving as both the sacrifice and the scapegoat. The result for us? Full assurance of faith. Pastor Matt encourages listeners to embrace this confidence by learning to repent boldly and pray boldly.
Leviticus 11–15 might be one of the toughest sections of the Bible to read - full of rituals, repetition, and even a few things that make us squirm. But beneath all the detail is something beautiful: a God who is thorough in His holiness and calls His people to be distinct. Join Jenna and Pastor Matt as they talk about “holy distinction,” the purpose behind clean and unclean laws, and what it means for Christians today.
How can you tell if someone is a Christian? Is it through church attendance, prayer, or reading the Bible - or is it something deeper, revealed in everyday life, attitudes, and actions? In this message from Leviticus 11–15, Pastor Matt unpacks what it means to live with holy distinction - to be a people set apart by God's grace in every part of life. Listen and be reminded: A holy God calls His people to be holy - and every moment is an opportunity to embody that distinction. #LibertiChurch #HolyGodHolyPeople #SermonSeries

In Leviticus 1–2, God calls His people to bring holy offerings, burnt offerings and grain offerings that reveal His holiness and their need for atonement. But what do these ancient practices mean for us today? In this B-Side episode, Pastor Matt and Jenna explore the purpose of sacrifices, how they point us to Jesus, and why God still cares about the heart behind our worship. This conversation continues our series Holy God; Holy People and helps us see how God makes a way for sinful people to dwell with His holy presence.

From the burnt offering to the grain, fellowship, purification, and restitution offerings, we see how each one points us to the ultimate sacrifice - Jesus Christ. He is our substitute, our provision, our peace, our purification, and our ransom. Join us as we discover how these ancient sacrifices deepen our awe of God's holiness and magnify the grace of Jesus, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Listen here and be encouraged that in Christ, our atonement is complete.

Communion: A Family of Churches for Flourishing Mission What does it mean to belong to a communion of churches? Why should we care about gospel partnerships beyond our own local congregation?

In this sermon from our Who We Are series, we look at what it means to faithfully live as God's people by both showing and telling the good news of Jesus. Too often, Christians and churches lean toward one or the other, living out the gospel through deeds or proclaiming it through words. But Scripture reminds us that these were never meant to be separated. Drawing from 1 Peter 2:9–12, we reflect on our identity as a chosen people and a royal priesthood, called to proclaim the excellencies of the One who brought us out of darkness and into His marvelous light. This passage encourages us to embrace both our words and our actions as part of God's mission in the world. Listen and be encouraged to live out your priestly calling in everyday life, pointing others to Jesus through what you say and how you live.
This message from our Who We Are series at Liberti Church explores the call to hospitality, loving the stranger as Christ has loved us (Luke 5:27–32). True hospitality means taking the initiative (1 Peter 2:9), welcoming with open hands and hearts (Romans 12:13; John 13:35), and trusting God to change lives. How might your home, table, or time become a place where others can experience the welcome of Jesus? Listen and reflect with us.
Church is more than a place you attend, it's a family you belong to. In this sermon of Pastor Bob, we dive into Covenantal, Empowered Membership, what it means to commit to one another, heal from church hurt, and use your Spirit-given gifts to build up the body of Christ. From Romans 12 and Ephesians 4, discover why God's Plan A for spreading the gospel is the local church and how you can play your part.
Delight: Rediscovering Sabbath What does it mean to truly delight in the Sabbath? In this third message of our Sabbath series, we explore not only stopping and resting, but the invitation to delight, in God, in His creation, and in our identity as His people. Bro. Andrew Dymski unpacks Isaiah 58 and other Scriptures to expose the counterfeit delights that often distract us, and points us to the deeper joy and freedom found in weekly Sabbath rhythms. With practical encouragement and honest reflection, this sermon challenges us to step away from our screens, reorient our desires, and intentionally cultivate a Sabbath that restores. Key Topics: – Sabbath as a gift, not a guilt trip – Deceiving delights and digital distractions – Isaiah 58: the call to delight in the Lord – Cultivating weekly rhythms of worship, rest, and joy – A challenge especially for men to lead in this practice
