August 3, 2025: Becoming a People: Covenant Renewal in the Wilderness - Walter Wilson

After wandering in the wilderness, Israel is on the cusp of a new beginning. Deuteronomy retells their story- not to rehash the past, but to remind a new generation of who they are. It’s a call to choose life, to love God and neighbor, and to remember the long road that brought them here.

Deuteronomy was likely compiled or finalized during or just before the Babylonian exile. It reflects a community in crisis trying to reimagine faithfulness without land, temple, or power, and inviting a return to covenant rooted in love and justice.

What do we carry forward—and what do we leave behind? What kind of community are we becoming as we step into the future?
