Faith is a slippery thing, doubting is a real thing, even the disciples wrestled with them.  How about you?  From the Red Sea to the locked room post-Easter, let Christ help you believe!

Where can we turn in our darkest, scariest moments?  Has God given us any encouragement?  His extraordinary encouragement to Israel in leaving Egypt, is wonderful truth for us today.  Take heart!

Are you feeling like an Egyptian today:  not part of God's family, surrounded by fake gods demanding attention, not sure if you are welcome at the Lord's table?  Let the 10 plagues answer that feeling!

This is a day for marveling.  When's the last time you marveled at something, someone?  Let the glorious deeds of our majestic God lift your spirit and life today, in celebration of Easter!  

Can Moses and Exodus speak to our Palm Sunday?  Yes, they can, and they will bring us to the foot of the cross in amazing fashion.  Bring on the ten plagues!

The seal of God was placed on His bond servants.  The Lamb will be our shepherd and.....we WILL be rewarded.

When we cry out to God for help with a problem, His answer will be immediate and wonderful.  Right?!  That's not what happened for Israel in Egypt.  Let's keep learning the ways of God, with Israel.

God shares with His servants, as His bond servants, we need patient endurance.  We need to repent of our "distractions".  We are to hold fast to God and what we know is truth.

I want you to know, that in this sermon you will meet a Sovereign Lord who holds heaven and hell, life and death, and individual human beings in the palm of His hand.  Moses met this God at the burning bush.  You must meet Him, too.

Who is Jesus' family?  Define "family".  How supportive was Jesus' family?  Can family life "change"? How did Jesus' family dynamics change?  To Bond slaves?
