In this sermon Elder Dan Long shares God's Word from Exodus 17:1-7 and Philippians 4:8. He'll challenge us to not be like the Israelites, but instead think about things that honor the Lord.
When things do not go the way that I want, what do I think about? What should I think about instead?

In this sermon, we'll look at the account of how God provided food for the Israelites to eat in the wilderness from Exodus 16. This passage will remind us how we have a standing invitation from the LORD to a deeper relationship with Him. We don't deserve a relationship with Him, but He invites us to see His glory through His Word, His work, and His Son. A relationship with Him is what ultimately satisfies our souls and gives us true rest.How does God provide for me?
Do I find my satisfaction in Him?

Elder Tom Toone shares with us from Exodus 15:22-27. We'll talk about moving from bitter complaining to trusting and obeying God. What do I have a tendency to complain about?
What should I do instead?

In this sermon, Moses and the people of Israel will sing a song of praise to God in Exodus 15:1-21. In this song, they will thank Him for rescuing them from the Egyptians at the Red Sea. They'll also thank God for His victory, power, and salvation. Even if we're not the best singers ourselves, this passage will show us how we can pass on the story of what God has done for us to the next generation.How do I pass on the stories of what God has done for me?Who do I share with?

In this sermon we'll look at the incredible story of the people of God crossing the Red Sea from Exodus 14. We will celebrate the wonderful truth that God fights for us! Instead of being trapped by our fear, we can look for the Lord's salvation.
Am I trapped by my fear? Do I feel like God fights for me?

In this sermon we'll look at how God led the people of Israel out of Egypt with a pillar of smoke and fire from Exodus 13:17-22. The Lord guided and directed the Israelites' path, protected them, and stayed with His people. He does the same for us today.

How does God protect me?

What does it look like for me to follow God today?

In this sermon we will focus on how God told His people to remember the Passover in Exodus 12-13.

Three times in the passage, God tells the Israelites to explain to their children why they remember the Passover. This teaches us to pass on our faith to those who come after us. We are to tell them how God has saved us, why they should join God's people, and why we worship/serve Him the way that we do. Another way to pass on our faith is through our participation in the Lord's Supper.

How do I pass on what I have learned about God?

In this sermon we look at the first Passover and the Israelites, well...um, exodus from Exodus 12. We talk about how the exodus is a picture of how God rescues us through the death of the lamb of God, Jesus Christ.

How did God rescue the Israelites from slavery in Egypt?
How does He rescue us from slavery to sin?

This week we are going to be looking at Isaiah 62, the whole chapter. One core tenet of East Shore is evangelism, we love it, we share the gospel every week. We collect the evangelism stories each week to encourage us to press on.
As this is Pastor Tom's final sermon, he wants to encourage you all the more to continue sharing the gospel! It is Pastor Tom’s prayer that Isaiah 62 will only strengthen that passion of gospel proclamation.

In this sermon we are going to look at the 9th plague, the darkness covering over Egypt. It is a fitting passage for Easter Sunday because we will see that Jesus also faced the darkness and overcame it, which means all of us, through Christ, are brought out of the darkness.

In this sermon we finish our study of the plagues from Exodus 10-11. Throughout this section we'll see rising tension as God brings more devastation on Egypt. At the same time, more and more people in Egypt are understanding who God is, but Pharaoh still refuses to budge until it is too late. Our time one earth will run out too, but (as long as we have breath) it is not too late for us to turn to God!

What does this passage teach me about God?
How do I respond to what God does?

In this sermon we continue our study of the plagues from Exodus 8-9. These chapters highlight God's power and the special care and concern that He shows towards His people. We will also consider the purpose God had for bringing these plagues and the response that He calls us to today.

Am I a part of God's people?
If so, how does He care for me?

In this sermon we will look at Exodus 5-6. We'll talk about Moses' first failed effort to free the Israelites and what we should do when things seem to go from bad to worse. When things seem to go wrong, we can trust that God is with us.

When things seem to go wrong in my life, what do I do?

What should I do?

In this sermon we will look at Exodus 5-6. We'll talk about Moses' first failed effort to free the Israelites and what we should do when things seem to go from bad to worse. When things seem to go wrong, we can trust that God is with us.

When things seem to go wrong in my life, what do I do?

In this sermon we'll consider what it means to be a son or child of God from Exodus 4:18-31. We'll talk about how God is in control of everything that happens to us and how He defends and rescues His people. In response, He calls us to obey and worship Him.

Am I a child of God?

If so, what difference does that make in my life?

Elder Tom Toone shares from Exodus 4:1-17. In this passage, Moses is told by God to do something for Him, just like He tells us to do things for Him. Moses comes up with reasons/excuses for why he can't do what the Lord is asking, just like we come up with reasons/excuses for ignoring God's directions. God is patient and gracious in reassuring Moses up to a certain point. God is patient and gracious with us as well up to a certain point. Ultimately, it is time for Moses to simply trust and obey God, just like we need to fully trust and obey.

What reasons/excuses do I come up with for not doing what God is asking me to do?
How can I trust and obey God?

In this sermon we look at the powerful first encounter Moses has with God at the burning bush from Exodus Chapter 3. Along with Moses, we will learn that God is holy, that He is our deliverer, that He will be with us, that He is the great I AM, and that He is in control of all things.
What does it mean that God is holy? What difference should that make in my life?

Exodus 2:23-25 will lead us to rejoice in the truths that God hears us when we call, God remembers His relationship with us, God sees what we are going through, and God fully and completely knows us.

Do I really believe that God hears, sees, and knows me?

What difference does that belief make in my life?

In this sermon we'll look at the first 80 years of Moses' life from Exodus 2:1-22. We'll see how God preserved Moses' life, how Moses chose to identify with God and His people, and how God prepared Moses for the task that He had in store for him. We will be challenged to praise God for how He has preserved and saved us, to choose a relationship with Him, and to trust Him as He prepares us for His purposes.

Have I chosen a relationship with God?
How have I experienced God preserving and preparing me?

We continue our new series in Exodus 1:8-22. This passage will teach us the value God places on life and the consequences that can occur when we don't value God's gift of life. We also discover God's loving care for His people and the greatest example of someone who values life in the person and work of Jesus Christ.

What happens when people do not value life?
How can I live in a way that defends God's gift of life?
