About this sermon
In this session of Secret Church 19, Pastor David Platt covers the first five books of the Bible, which are known as the Pentateuch. The Pentateuch lays the foundation for Scripture’s teaching about the nature of God, man, sin, and salvation. These foundational truths are critical for understanding what Scripture teaches about prayer, fasting, and the pursuit of God. The Pentateuch is also important for helping us understand the storyline of Scripture, beginning with God’s original design in creation, man’s fall into sin, and God’s plan of redemption. In this first session, we’ll see how prayer and fasting figure into God’s dealings with the patriarchs—Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—and then with Moses and Israel.
