During Moses’ visit with his father-in-law, Jethro advises Moses not to lead God’s people alone but to do so with the help of other spiritually qualified men. Jethro says that this will help Moses to endure and ultimately bless God’s people by giving them longevity, unity, and peace. These same principles are true for the church today, and are exactly why God still has His people, the Church, led by a plurality of shepherds.

After returning to Mount Sinai, where Moses first encountered God while shepherding his father-in-law’s sheep, Moses reunites with his father-in-law Jethro and shares all that God has accomplished in rescuing the Israelites. In response, Jethro receives the good news with rejoicing, belief, and worship. Find out how God’s salvation demands a response, and what that response should look like for all people.

The people of God engage in their first battle after the Amalekites attack them at Rephidim. But, instead of going into battle depending on their own strength, Joshua and the men of Israel fight in dependence on God’s strength. Join us to see how this battle illustrates the need to have the kind of faith in God that is willing to rest in dependence of His power to save.

For the final time before reaching Mount Sinai, God’s people grumble against Him and put Him to the test. Find out how God once again shows that He is a God worth trusting in, and how He provides for His people in a way that is personal and present with them. Most of all, find out about the true Rock and Water of life that God gives, His Son Jesus Christ.

After God gave His people water, they complained again about no food. Remarkably, God doesn’t smite them but serves them! Find out how God’s sufficient provision shows the kind of God He is and how His people should respond with faithful submissiveness that trusts and rests and remembers what God has provided, ultimately salvation through His Son Jesus Christ.

Immediately after praising God, Israel begins grumbling against Him. As Moses leads the Israelites into the wilderness, their need for water becomes great, which reveals their even greater need to depend on the Lord by following His Word faithfully. Join us and find out why God allows suffering so that He makes people realize their need to depend on Him.

Since the days of the prophets, to the age of the New Testament, through the times of Martin Luther and the Reformation, until now, God has saved His people through faith alone. The question is, what is faith? What must happen in one’s heart and life to respond to God’s grace with the kind of faith that saves? Join us as Pastor Stephen offers a systematic look at what the whole counsel of God has to say about saving faith, starting in Romans 1:16-17.

There are many kinds of faith, but only one that saves. In the letter to the Hebrews, God encourages suffering Christians with examples from the Old Testament of saving faith. No other example of faith is described more explicitly than that of Moses in Hebrews 11:24-26. In this passage, discover the inner workings of saving faith, and what happens in the human heart when it decides to trust Christ as Lord and Savior.

After God glorifies Himself by victoriously defeating Egypt and saving Israel, Moses and Miriam lead the people in a song of praise in reaction to who God is and what He’s done. In doing so, they explain why God is to be praised and how He is to be praised, giving a model for worship for all of God’s people everywhere.

God glorifies Himself by delivering His people out of the presence of the Egyptians. By parting the waters of the Red Sea, God shows why He delivered His people, how He delivered His people, and how His people should respond.
