Message Recap
The first five books of the Bible are often referred to as “the Law” (or Torah). On the surface, it looks like a bunch of rules. But when you dig in, you discover how radically different the love of God is for His people. Let’s learn how to apply this scripture to our lives while looking to Jesus, the One who fulfilled them all.
