St. Andrew's United Methodist Church
The Story of Moses | Rev. Jayne Rideout
SERIES OVERVIEW:
The Old Testament is an important tool in shaping our faith. In it we can find many examples of very flawed and imperfect people who God used to do perfect and incredible things. God sees potential in us that we can often miss altogether. During this 5-week series we will explore various stories in scripture to remind us that God intends to use all of us, regardless of our shortcomings.
MESSAGE OVERVIEW:
This Sunday we will focus on the calling of Moses and his resistance to God’s idea. Moses resists God, pointing out his own limitations, but still God continues to counter each of Moses' claims. Even with the assurance of God’s help, Moses does not believe he is equipped to do the job God has called him to do.
