The Exodus People
In this powerful exploration of the Exodus narrative, we're invited to see ourselves as an 'Exodus people' on a spiritual journey. The message delves deep into the recurring theme of God creating spaces for life amidst chaos, from the Creation story to Noah's flood, and ultimately to our own lives. We're challenged to recognize that the 'way out' - the true meaning of 'Exodus' - is Jesus himself, who connects his life and death to this profound biblical motif. As we examine the stories of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar, we're confronted with the uncomfortable truth that we all have the potential to be both the oppressed and the oppressor. This realization calls us to a deeper understanding of our need for God's redemption, not just from external forces, but from the 'Pharaoh' and 'snake' within us. The message encourages us to trust in God's faithfulness, even when we fail, and to embrace our identity as people on an exodus journey towards new life in Christ.
