Moses lived 120 years and his life was split into thirds equally. The first 40 years were in Egypt, 2nd 40 years in Midian, and the last 40 were leading Israelites to the Promised Land. Listen as Heather and Susan discuss the importance of each of these portions in Moses' life and how they prepared him to be the leader his people needed. Thank you for making it this far! We are happy you are part of the club. Make sure to take a peek at the show notes below for Hayley's recap! Questions How...

Exodus 2 and 3:
Exodus 2 and 3 bring us to the time in Moses’ life where God calls him out. Moses goes out to see his people and it brings out a passion in Moses that he cannot control. This new passion brings him unfortunately to murder but also brings Moses to leave Egypt and start anew in Midian. There is a bunch to learn from just these two chapters–listen with us!
HAYLEY’S BIBLE BENDER:
My Bible bender of this passage came from what Susan called the Wells and Wedding Pattern. The pattern goes like this:
- A man travels to a foreign land
- He meets a virtuous woman at the well
- A discussion or courtship ensues
- She takes him home to meet her family
- And marriage is arranged.
While the theme is intriguing in itself, it also was a Bible bender that this theme is a sign that God is going to use this to teach us something in the New Testament.
