A Refuge for Your Soul - Audio

Last week Pastor Craig focused on the physical relief that comes from refuge in Christ. This week he returns to the example of the refugee in Deuteronomy 19:1-10 to emphasize the spiritual shelter we find in The Lord. Our souls cry out for protection and rescue from our sin (not just in times of pain, grief, or depression). Yet where can we go but to Christ to find true and lasting peace? God knows each and every fiber of our beings, which is why His Word speaks so often of the peace we find under His wings. We desperately need the Spirit of God to use the Truth of God to realign our lives. It is where we must turn when the world offers false hope in the form of a remedy to the wrong problem, so that rather than making excuses and choosing the world, we will mature in Christ. Imagine the desperation of the man who flees retribution day and night without rest, seeking the city of refuge—are we that desperate for refuge and maturity in Christ?
