In this episode of Anchored by the Word, Josh Davis (co-host and elder intern at Westlake) fills in for Pastor Justin to walk us through the powerful truths found in Exodus 33. This chapter confronts us with the reality that God’s greatest gift is not land, blessings, or comfort—but His very presence. Moses’ desperate plea, “If Your presence will not go with us, do not bring us up from here,” challenges us to examine what we value most in our walk with God.
As Josh unpacks the text, we see how Exodus 33 points us forward to Christ—the greater Mediator who intercedes for His people and reveals God’s glory in full through His incarnation, humility, and sacrifice. What Moses could only glimpse, we now see clearly in Jesus Christ, Emmanuel, God with us.
This episode closes with a practical challenge. Join us as we anchor ourselves in the Word and remember that life without God is empty, but in Christ we find fullness, rest, and glory.
