Have you ever struggled with looking back on what could have been or fearful of what the future may bring? Most of our discontentment is the result of focusing too much on the past or future while living for the wrong reward.
Can you imagine coming to the end of your life and dying with your reward in sight but out of reach?
Deuteronomy 34 is not only the last chapter of Deuteronomy but the last chapter of Moses' life. One of the greatest lessons to learn from Moses is not only how he lived but more importantly how he died. More often than naught, a person dies how they lived!
There is much encouragement for us to gain, looking at the greatness of Moses and more importantly, the glory of Christ.

A Song to Remember
May 23, 2021 • Pastor David Anglin
A Song to Remember Music is powerful! People may disagree about styles, genres, and volume but few would ever deny the power of music to evoke emotions or trigger the recall of memories previously forgotten. "Generally, the music has a massive influence on the people and their emotions. It really doesn’t matter whether we like a specific kind of music, it will trigger an emotion – positive or negative. This is probably the reason why some of our deepest memories are closely connected to music" (Music and Memory). The final task God gave Moses before his death was to write and sing a song for the nation. A song for them to remember. A song for them to make clear who God was, who they were, and what their future descendant would need to know. Deuteronomy 31:21, "For I know what they are inclined to do even today before I have brought them into the land that I swore to give.” This may just be a song we also need to hear!
Transitions & Change
May 16, 2021 • Pastor David Anglin
Transitions and Change Life is full of transitions. Everyone is on the verge of a new transition, in the midst of a transition, or coming out of a transition. We may not like change but you will never be able to avoid it. As Moses finishes his final message to the nation of Israel a great transition begins. Moses knows he is about to die. After many years and many miles, Moses is at the end of his life. After faithfully serving God he knows he will not be allowed to lead the nation into the Promised Land. There are valuable truths to explore as we see Moses walk out his final days (Deut 31). The most pressing question to consider as we look at Deuteronomy 31: How do you handle transitions and change?
