Exodus: Moses, The Moon, And Why You Are Breathing

What if the key to living a life of true purpose is recognizing that you are not the center of the universe, but rather a reflection of the One who is?In this sermon on Exodus 34:29–35, Lead Pastor Neil McClendon unpacks the story of Moses coming down from Mount Sinai with his face shining after spending 40 days in God's presence. Pastor Neil challenges the modern, self-centered worldview that treats humanity as the sun, reminding us that we are created like the moon—having no light of our own, but designed to reflect the radiance and authority of God.
