What Kind of Person is God?           

What kind of person is God? Not what he can do, but what he's actually like. When Moses asked to see God for himself, the answer he got in Exodus 34 was a surprise: compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness. That one moment shapes the rest of the Bible, right through to Jesus' own teaching.

Psalm 103 is where that portrait is drawn out most fully. Over five episodes we walk through it together, and see how the psalmist takes God's own words and expands them: forgiveness higher than the sky, love that outlasts our short lives, and faithfulness that passes from generation to generation.

The Moment God Revealed What He's Really Like

After Moses talked God out of destroying Israel over the golden calf, he asked for something remarkable - to see what God is really like. God's answer, in Exodus 34:6-7, is one of the most foundational statements in the whole Bible: compassionate, gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
