Leaving Egypt

There’s something powerful about stories, especially when they’re real, raw, and rooted in the faithfulness of God.

That’s why we, as a church, are walking through the book of Exodus together. Not because it’s a familiar Sunday school narrative with burning bushes and parted seas. Not because it’s cinematic or dramatic (though it absolutely is). But because Exodus is more than an ancient story, it’s our story. It’s your story. It’s mine.

Exodus is About Rediscovering Identity

We live in a time of spiritual amnesia. We forget who we are, who God is, and what He’s done. Exodus opens with the people of God enslaved in Egypt, forgotten by Pharaoh, but not forgotten by God. And maybe you’ve felt that. Forgotten. Overlooked. Burdened under something that seems impossible to break free from.

But Exodus reminds us: God hears. God sees. God remembers. God acts.

Walking through this book together reminds us who we are: not defined by bondage, not named by Pharaoh, but chosen, called, and carried by the Great I Am.

Exodus is About Reframing Our Trials

Let’s be honest, life is hard. We face disappointments, setbacks, and delays that feel unbearable. And sometimes we wonder if God is even working at all.

But in Exodus, we see the uncomfortable truth that God doesn’t always deliver immediately. He often delivers through the trial, not around it. Pharaoh’s hardness of heart. Israel’s broken spirit. Moses’ insecurity. It’s all part of the process.

This journey reframes our trials. We’re learning to ask not “How do I get out of this?” but “God, what are You forming in me through this?”

Exodus is About Reimagining Freedom

Freedom isn’t just the absence of chains. It’s learning to walk with God in the wilderness. Exodus doesn’t end at the Red Sea. It continues with manna in the desert, water from rocks, and the slow formation of a people who learn to trust, follow, and worship their Deliverer.

As we journey through this book, we’re being invited to reimagine freedom not as instant escape but as intentional formation. Freedom isn’t just about being set free, it’s about being set apart.

Exodus is About Encountering God's Presence

One of the most moving moments in Exodus is when Moses says, “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.” That’s our cry too.

We don’t want to walk through this series just to become Bible-smart or religiously informed. We want to encounter the living God. We want His presence in our Sundays, in our families, in our decisions, in our pain.

Exodus leads us not only to freedom, but to worship. To awe. To communion. It brings us to the foot of the mountain, to the mercy seat, to the God who dwells among His people.

Why Now?

Because we’re in our own kind of wilderness. The past few years have shaken us, globally, culturally, personally. We’ve seen pain. We’ve endured loss. And yet, here we are.

We believe God is forming something new in our church. Not just programs or events. But people. Disciples. A worshiping, trusting, faithful people who carry His presence in a weary world.

That’s why we’re walking through Exodus, because we believe God is still writing deliverance stories.

So come with us.

Bring your questions. Bring your hurts. Bring your need to remember who you are.

And let’s rediscover the God who parts seas, leads with fire, and never leaves His people in bondage.

The journey out of Egypt begins now.
