Exodus 12:29-13:16
Every family has a firstborn. In recent years, the prospect of the baby’s coming has been celebrated in advance with a “reveal party.” A shower may also be given in advance to help the family clothe their newborn. Upon the birth, the baby is named, welcomed, baptized and cared for.

Exodus 12:1-13
Preparations for major holy days require much thought. This is why the church calendar includes such seasons as Advent, Lent and Pentecost. We spend four weeks considering the incarnation of the Son of God. We spend forty days contemplating the death of Christ on our behalf. We spend fifty days embracing the truth of the resurrection, and looking forward to the coming of the Holy Spirit.

Exodus 11:1-10
Who gets the last word when conflict rises to its highest level in your family, in your city, in your world? It is an important question to answer at all levels. The future of the family, the city and the world may depend on it.

Exodus 9:13-10:29
Weather predictions are made every day in the modern world. We sometimes laugh at them as if the predictions are always wrong. On certain occasions, we laugh at them to our own peril. The most dramatic illustrations concern the occurrence of hurricanes, tornados and cyclones.

Exodus 8:20-9:12
Is your heart an idol factory? (Tim Keller often borrowed this original comment of John Calvin) It has been said that Egypt worshipped everything that moved. It is no surprise, then that God attacked the false objects of worship.
