In Week 3 of our series on the Law, Pastor Tim Carpenter dives into some of the most seemingly "strange" laws of the Old Testament to uncover their deeper, intentional purposes. By exploring ancient rules regarding mixed fabrics, rebellious sons, and dietary boundaries, we will see how these commands reveal a profound divine logic designed for our good. We'll also look at modern "weird" laws to understand how digging beneath the surface can move us from skepticism to a posture of humility. Join us as we discover how God calls us to live distinct, impactful lives in our culture today that ultimately point back to Jesus.

How do the 613 laws of the Old Testament connect to our lives today? In Week 2 of our series on the Law, Pastor Tim Carpenter dives into how theologians traditionally categorize these ancient directives into moral, civil, and ceremonial laws. Rather than being a collection of outdated rules, we discover how these interconnected categories shape our modern society, reveal God's holy character, and ultimately point us to the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. Join us at Mercy Church as we explore the heart behind the Law and learn to see the grand story God is writing.
