The book of Exodus picks where the book of Genesis ends. Genesis was all about origins–the origins of the world, humanity, sin, and God’s first covenant with humanity through Abraham. Exodus is a story about the descendants of Abraham becoming the people of God. God is faithful to grow them into a nation, save them out of Egypt, give them his law as part of a special covenant with them, and teach them to trust him and walk in his ways through various trials and experiences as they journey to the promise land. Moses records the journey of the Israelites to teach us about what it looks like for us to become the people of God in Christ. We invite you to take part in this journey with us as we learn more what it means to become the people of God in Christ.
As we celebrate Christmas and the birth of Christ, Luke 1:26-38 provides a great example of faith in Mary. Mary heard the word of God given by Gabriel the Angel, believed what was said, and began to live God’s word out. Luke reminds us concerning the virgin birth that God can do anything. As we celebrate Christ this Christmas season, may we be reminded that God can do the impossible in any situation we find ourselves in, and may we in faith expect him to move. God favored Mary not because there was anything innately special about her, but because God wanted to place his love on her. Similarly, God loves us in Christ not because of who we are, but because of who he is.
