Against the heavy racial tensions of his day, Paul described the church like this: "For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility" Ephesians 2:14. For him, the church Jews and Gentiles were able to sit at the same table, share the same meal, and call each other brother and sister. As we start our new series: How To Be Church, we are gonna see how Paul's ancient definition of church is so relevant today!

In our last episode of the Exodus series, we explore one of the biggest themes in the whole Bible: Heaven on Earth.

We are almost done with the book of Exodus. But before we conclude it, we need to remember the kind of God is introduced to us in this book.

Right before the 10th plague hit, the Lord gave the most sacred holiday to the Jews: Passover. This time we discuss the full significance of the first Passover, and the best Passover that came a few hundred years later.

We finish the plagues of Egypt trying to answer this question: how is it fair that God hardened the heart of Pharaoh?

We look at the first 4 plagues that the Lord sent to Egypt. And so many questions come to our mind: Did they really happen? Weren't they just recurrent phenomena in the region? How can a loving God send them? And finally, in the context of a pandemic ravaging the world - Did God send Covid-19, as he sent the plagues to Egypt?

Pastor Fernando Chavez is our guest speaker for this week, and he presents Exodus 6 for us.

We meet the last main character of the story: Pharaoh. As we study about this mighty king, we get to understand the evil of slavery and oppression, as well as the response of God to them.

God introduces himself to Moses in the most dramatic fashion. He comes and not only gives him the task to release his people, he also discloses his name for the first time in the history of the world. As we learn his name, we learn so much about the one true God.

We start examining the life of Moses. We get to know his passions and skills, and how his actions contrasts with God's. As we do, we'll understand why God's methods are far better than ours.
