Exodus 32
Intro/Attention
*Find Exodus 32 in your Bibles. We are studying the Old Testament book of Exodus on Sunday mornings. And I know, just as I said, Exodus 32, some of you began to stress out a little bit.

Other than that, it's been the story of close calls, near misses, and big-time disappointment. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled about the win. And while I cheered for the Braves and really am grateful for the victory, I was struck with a feeling I didn't expect. I watched fans on television or social media talk about this victory as ...
