The Relevant Life of Moses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998776675)

As students of Scripture, we've read about Moses leading the children of Israel through the wilderness. We've rejoiced when they crossed the Red Sea on dry ground, escaping Pharaoh's army. We've condemned them for their disobedience in the wilderness. We know how the story ends, so we might not stick around for their entrance into the Promised Land.

But Moses' life was complex and filled with contradictions, and it's impossible to understand this great prophet and leader without the context of his history or without becoming acquainted with the people he led. Not only is their story a fascinating account of God's power and faithfulness, but historically there have been many connections made between the enslaved Israelites and those persons who were enslaved here in the United States. We have had our share of wilderness experiences as we have searched for own version of the Promised Land.
