About Us

The Book of Numbers is a book that many people have difficulty reading.  To some the title alone is off-putting because it reminds us of sitting in math class staring at an equation trying to come up with the answer.  For others it is the repetition and lists that give them pause.  

However, the Book of Numbers gives a great wealth of wisdom and understanding to God and His purpose for the Israelites as well as us today.  

The Expositor's Bible Commentary states: 

"The book contains numerous lists of names and numbers, involved genealogies, dramatic historical narratives, arcane rites of purification and ritual sacrifice, lists of sites visited in the wanderings of Israel, lovely poetry, the quintessential blessing of the Lord on his people, impassioned personal encounters, rather dull and prosaic documents on priestly duties, engaging flashes of personality conflicts, stories of intrigue and betrayal, accounts of robust heroism and daring faith, tedious descriptions of detail in ritual, some hymn fragments, quotations from other ancient books, exultant praises to God, and--most surprisingly--exalted poetic prophecies providing a blessing of Israel from a pagan mantic prophet who has fallen under the "spell" of the God of Israel."

Join us each week as we travel through this rich book to learn about what God did for the Israelites and how it applies to our lives today.
