It wasn’t really the beginning. Not the REAL beginning. But it was the start. When God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, it was the start of calling a people to Himself. The promise made to Abraham came to fruition in Moses—but not before God miraculously made Himself known through a fiery display on a desert mountaintop. In that encounter, God revealed so much more about Himself than we may grasp at first glance.
I Am: Learning From Moses' Encounter With God is a four-session sermon series designed to use the burning bush account to launch into an in-depth look at who God is and how He relates to us.
"I Am" covers the following purposes and passages:
- SESSION 1 – "God is Eternal and Unchanging": To show students that God is eternal and unchanging, and His plan to redeem mankind from sin is eternal. (Exodus 3:1-15, John 1:14)
- SESSION 2 – "God Is Holy": God is holy, and in Christ, God sees us as holy. (Exodus 3:1-15, Colossians 1:21-22, 1 Peter 2:9)
- SESSION 3 – "God Is Love": God is love, and Jesus is the most active expression of that love. (Exodus 3:1-15, Deuteronomy 7:6-8, 1 John 4:7-8, Psalm 86:15, Psalm 13:5)
- SESSION 4 – "God Is With Us": God is always with His people through His Spirit and His Word. (Exodus 3:1-15, Matthew 1:22-23, Galatians 4:4-6, Ephesians 1:13)
