This week, Pastor Bartley Sawatsky continues our series Exodus: The Rise of Moses, as he focuses on chapter 3:1-12. In Exodus 3:1-12, God speaks to Moses from a burning bush in the desert and tells him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. At first, Moses is hesitant, but God promises to be with him and give him the necessary strength and abilities. The encounter marks the beginning of Moses' leadership of the Israelites and their journey to the Promised Land.

The book of Exodus is foundational to the story of God's relationship with humanity. The pivotal events recorded in the second book of the Bible demonstrate God's great love for His people by rescuing them from slavery in Egypt, forming them into a nation and establishing a covenant with them. In the first 7 chapters we’ll see how God chose Moses – an abandoned child in a dangerous time who later commits murder as an adult – and redeemed his life to make him into Israel's great prophet, emancipator and leader.
