Sermon Texts:

Genesis 2:5-8,15

Romans 1:19-25

Exodus 3:12

We continue our study of the call of Moses. Here we examine a single verse. However, this verse directs us to the overall purpose of the Exodus. The point is not simply to escape Egypt or even to receive God’s law. Instead, the Israelites are to worship God. We examine what worship means by studying the Hebrew word avad and see why understanding avad is not important just for the Israelites but also for us.
