God is in the act of forming a nation unto himself. Before he does this, he sends a wise friend to counsel Moses, and then asks Moses to deliver an important message to his people. This message will serve as the introduction or preamble to the covenant that God will make with his people at Mt. Sinai. Exodus 18-19 delivers for us insights related to leadership and being in this world as God's delivered and set apart people. Today, we continue to unpack the second movement of Exodus. How can the church embrace and live into its calling as a kingdom of priests?

As the Hebrew people move into the wilderness, we too, move into the second movement of our study through the Exodus narrative. Here, we will watch God form a nation unto himself. As God reforms his people into a nation, what are his priorities? And what does he want them to know? Who are the kinds of people God is using? And how does he respond when his people grow faint, disobey, and refuse to follow? We will explore all these questions and more as we begin to unravel the middle of Exodus. Today, we are in chapters 16-17.

Pastor Chris Lenhart at Calvary Monument Bible Church

Today is the final part of our study through the first movement of Exodus. The Hebrew people are stuck between the proverbial rock and a hard place. With an impassable sea on one side, and an unruly army on the other, how would they discover their salvation? God is about to display his power in a miraculous way, as he delivers his people through the waters, he will be glorified, and his people will finally see deliverance. Today we explore what it means to be holy or set apart for God, and we examine how we can walk by faith even when all hope seems lost. Join us online or in Paradise, PA as we unpack the scriptures together. Exodus 13-14.

Pastor Chris Lenhart at Calvary Monument Bible Church

We are winding down our first movement in the book of Exodus. In the first part of Exodus, we have walked through God's plan to deliver his people from the hands of their Egyptian oppressors. We have witnessed God raise up, empower, and equip his deliverer. We have watched as God has worked through 9 plagues and a hard heart, to make his name great among the nation of Egypt. And now, in Exodus 11-12, we enter into the final plague, the death of the first born. This is the genesis of God's deliverance. Freedom will come through a traumatic loss of life. A foreshadowing of our future deliverance in Jesus.

Welcome to the Sunday Leftovers Podcast

Today’s episode will cover topics from Exodus 1-6.

To begin, we will explore the various wordplays that are taking place in the names that we find early in the Exodus narrative. What did Moses’ name actually mean in Hebrew? How about in Egyptian? And what about the meaning of Miriam, Jochebed, Amram, and other names that we find in the beginning of Exodus?

Next, we will turn our attention to Exodus 4 where we will explore two topics. First, a deeper dive into the purpose behind God’s hardening of Pharaoh’s heart. Then, we will look at the unusual and curious account of God’s attempt to kill Moses.

Finally, we unpack the ancestry and heritage of Moses and Aaron, observing how the text fits them into the line of Levi as true Hebrews able to identify with the people they were working to deliver.

[2:00] The Meaning of Names in (Ex. 1-2)

[11:30] What does it mean that God hardened Pharaoh’s heart? And why did God try to take Moses’ life? (Ex. 4)

[23:30] The ancestry of Moses and Aaron (Ex. 6:14-25)

This week we find the awesome magnificence of our God as he begins to completely disrupt, disorder, and unsettle the Pharaoh and his kingdom. And yet, Pharaoh's heart remains hard. He will not let God's people go. We will repeatedly witness how God demonstrates both power over Egyptian gods and unfailing love for his people. He is our wonder-working Savior! Join us live in Paradise, PA or online as we continue working through the first movement of Exodus watching as God redeems his people. Exodus 7:14-9:14.

Pastor Chris Lenhart at Calvary Monument Bible Church

We continue our journey through the sands of Exodus. God is bringing about a long deliverance through his deliverer, Moses. This week, Moses faces direct opposition from both Pharoah, and the Israelites. How would Moses respond? And how might we respond when facing opposition and setbacks within our own callings? Ultimately, we will uncover the faithfulness of our great "I AM," the God who works through and beyond human opposition to bring about his intended purposes and accomplish his good plans. Join us live in Paradise, PA or come along with us on this journey online as we step into Exodus 5-6. We are glad you found us.

Pastor Chris Lenhart at Calvary Monument Bible Church

What do we do when that which God has called us towards looks and feels incredibly large and difficult? When fear, doubt, and insecurity creep in, how can we look beyond the call to walk by faith in the One who has called us? Moses was struggling with his calling. He is wrestling with his own inability, and in Exodus 3-4, God reminds Moses, that he is not alone. Our Redeemer goes with us to all the people and places he sends us. This week, we walk with Moses as he wrestles with his calling, and we find him asking the same questions we sometimes ask. What can learn about walking by faith? Join us online or in Paradise, PA as we continue our exploration of Exodus, learning more about the God who redeems, reforms, and renews his people!

Pastor Chris Lenhart at Calvary Monument Bible Church

Join us as we begin a brand-new series, in three movements, through the book of Exodus. In the first movement, we will explore God's plan of redemption as he calls his people out of Egypt. In the second movement, God's free yet displaced people enter the wilderness where he will reform and set them apart for his purposes. Then, in the final movement, we will watch as God's steadfast and loyal love bears with and renews his people as they continually struggle to follow in his ways. Redemption, reformation, renewal, in three movements through the book of Exodus! We begin today. Worship with us in-person in Paradise, PA or online as we engage the scriptures together.
