You do not want to miss this study because in Exodus 37 we will learn exactly what that means and how it shapes every part of our worship and work.

It is a myth to believe that God will never give us more than we can handle, because the reality is our lives are filled with circumstances that are far beyond our ability to navigate.

Today on Light on the Hill we'll be encouraged by a group of people that did exactly what God commanded. And the impossible work was done by a miraculous God!

God very often allows us to face the impossible so that He might demonstrate His power on our behalf, making possible what is otherwise impossible.
