The song of Moses in Deuteronomy 32 begins with Moses saying, “Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak , and let the earth hear the words of my mouth . May my teaching drop as the rain, my speech distill as the dew, like gentle rain upon the tender grass, and like showers upon the herb. For I will proclaim the [...]

Oh, sometimes I’m so bad about updating my blog… I blame not having internet at home! But, since my last post, we started the adventure of church planting! Tory started the church planting residency in September and it’s already been an adventure!
God has been sooooo good through it and already I feel like [...] -

Hearing God: A Key Component to Staying Out of Sin Okay, so here is something that I have been realizing recently, both in the Word, and in my own life. The more I hear from God, it seems like the less I sin. Ironically (not really) the same seems to be true with the people I am [...] -

My precious granddaughter’s name is “Hephzibah”. It’s a beautiful name but it isn’t simple and it isn’t convenient. When people first hear it, they want it re-pronounced, spelt, and explained. But the meaning is lovely: “my delight is in her”. Would every child know that their parents delight in them! God placed this name in [...]

Someone mentioned to me after the sermon on Numbers 11 that it appears that both Israel and Moses complained, but Israel was judged and Moses was blessed. Why? What was the difference? Here are my thoughts as we compare Israel and Moses complaints. Lets first take a look at Israel’s complaint. Israel’s complaint seemed like [...]

I glanced over this passage the other day as I was working on Biblefox. My eye caught on the quote from the King of Egypt in verses 8-10:
8 Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph. 9 He said to his people, “Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more [...]

Rest, Liz. Just rest for now:) I’m confident God will reveal His next step for you in His good timing. “In Your unfailing love You will lead the people You have redeemed.” (Exodus 15:13)
Can’t wait to see y’all!! -

So, do you think that the whole Israelite camp heard the ten commandments? Or do you think that it was just Moses and Aaron? It seems a bit unclear from the text. They seem to have decided that the people should not come up to Mt. Sinai by the end of chapter 19. But then [...]

Just a couple of things I was thinking about as I read it. 1) As Exodus was the first book of the Hebrew scripture it is interesting to think that this is perhaps the first event that involved God and all of Israel in action with each other. Passover (and the following consecration of the [...]

My sister-in-law, Karina Venable, put a post up on another Biblefox blog from our church back in Texas. She made an interesting connection between Moses’ description in Exodus and Acts.

John’s teaching yesterday on 1 Samuel 5-6 was about how we can trust God to do His work with our help. He is supreme and He can overcome opposition and glorify Himself. I think that this story of the birth of Moses demonstrates those ideas as well. Here God takes care of Moses and [...]
