Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 6 — Freedom Secured
Exodus 12:1–13:22 | Teaching by Christi Davis

After generations of slavery, the time has finally come for God to bring His people out of Egypt. But before their departure, the LORD gives Israel detailed instructions—not only for their deliverance, but also for how they are to remember what He has done.

In this teaching, Christi Davis explores the significance of the Passover, the blood of the lamb, and the practices God established to help His people remember their redemption. We'll also consider how these events point forward to Jesus Christ, our perfect Passover Lamb, and what Israel's departure from Egypt teaches us about living as people who have been redeemed.

Redemption is more than something we remember. It changes how we live.

Are we following God away from the sin that once enslaved us? And are we intentionally remembering what He has done?

Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 5 — The Enemy Warned
Exodus 7:14–11:10 | Teaching by Summer Lacy

“Who is the LORD that I should obey him?”

Pharaoh's question in Exodus 5:2 sets the stage for one of the most dramatic displays of God's power in Scripture: the ten plagues of Egypt.

But the plagues are more than a series of devastating judgments. Through them, the LORD is purposefully making Himself known—revealing His identity, His presence, His authority, and His power over all creation.

In this teaching from Exodus 7:14–11:10, Summer Lacy explores the intentional structure of the plagues and the lessons God reveals through them. As Pharaoh repeatedly resists the LORD's authority, others begin to recognize who He is.

And Pharaoh's hardened heart offers a sobering warning for us today: It is possible to know more and more about God while refusing to respond to what He has revealed.

God makes Himself known. The question is, how will we respond?

Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 4 — Freedom Promised
Exodus 5:1-7:13 | Teaching by Christi Davis

What happens when obedience to God seems to make our circumstances worse rather than better? In this Week 4 teaching, Christi Davis walks through Exodus 5:1–7:13, where Moses confronts Pharaoh with the LORD's command to release His people, only to see their suffering intensify.

As Pharaoh challenges God's authority with the question, “Who is the LORD that I should obey Him?”, God responds by revealing His name, reaffirming His covenant promises, and declaring what He will do to redeem His people. Through Israel's discouragement, Moses' doubts, and Pharaoh's resistance, we discover that God's purposes do not depend on human strength or cooperation. The LORD Himself will act to accomplish what He has promised.

This teaching reminds us that even when circumstances seem to contradict God's promises, His word remains trustworthy. He is the God who makes Himself known, keeps His covenant, and brings His people into freedom.

Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 3 — A Deliverer Sent
Exodus 3-4 | Teaching by Christi Davis

What do we do when God’s timing doesn’t look like we expected? In Week 3 of Exodus: God’s People Redeemed, Christi Davis walks through Exodus 3–4 and the calling of Moses, tracing the ways God is at work even when His people can see only a small piece of the story. From the burning bush to Moses’ questions and objections, we see a God who sees the whole story, keeps His promises, provides what His people need, and works according to His perfect timing.

And as God sends Moses to rescue Israel from slavery, Exodus points us toward an even greater rescue still to come. The God who revealed Himself to Moses as the great “I AM” was unfolding a story of redemption that would ultimately lead to Jesus Christ—the Son sent to save His people from their sins. When life doesn’t unfold as we hope or expect, Exodus invites us to widen our gaze, remember what we know about God, and keep watching for what He is doing in the meantime.

Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 2 — A Cry For Rescue
Exodus 1-2 | Teaching by Summer Lacy

Where is God when He seems difficult to see?

In this Week 2 teaching from Exodus: God’s People Redeemed, Summer Lacy walks through Exodus 1–2, where God’s people face oppression, suffering, and the threat of death—and God often appears to be absent from the story. But a closer look reveals His providence quietly at work: fulfilling His promises, preserving His people, and preparing a deliverer.

From the courage of the Hebrew midwives to the preservation of Moses, we learn to train our eyes to see the God who is working even when we cannot yet see what He is doing. And as Moses’ story begins to unfold, it points us beyond Moses to Jesus Christ—the greater Deliverer who identifies with His people and is able to save completely.

The chapter closes with four powerful truths: God heard. God remembered. God saw. God knew. His people may not have known where He was or what He was doing—but God knew.

Exodus: God's People Redeemed | Week 1 — Israel Enslaved
Introduction to the Book of Exodus | Teaching by Summer Lacy

Why does the book of Exodus matter for us today? In this introductory teaching to Exodus: God’s People Redeemed, Summer Lacy sets the story of Exodus within the larger story of Scripture and explores why this ancient story is so foundational to our understanding of God and the gospel. From Israel’s bondage in Egypt to God’s powerful work of deliverance, Exodus reveals the God who sees, hears, remembers, and redeems. And as the story unfolds, it gives us a picture of redemption that ultimately points beyond Egypt to Jesus Christ—the One who accomplishes a greater Exodus and makes a way out for people who could never make a way out for themselves.
