Reading through the Bible: Exodus 31-33 #CEB

These are some of my favorite passages in the Bible.  I love in chapter 33 that Moses convinces God to act in a certain way.  I also think that it is cool that Moses wanted to “see” God, and God allowed it to happen too.  Chapter 32 is filled with great preaching material.  What Golden calves do you worship?

Todays reading is in Exodus 31-33.  Remember this is a link to the Bible I read from for devotions, at the link you can switch versions or look the passage up in your own Bible.  Please comment after reading our “Graceful” comments page.

Bible in a Year: Exodus 28-30 #CEB

These chapters hit me pretty close to home.  Although I am not a priest, I am as close to a priest as you can get in my tradition.  I encourage you to read through these verses carefully.  There are some similarities in our “priests” of today and in the time of Moses.  There is also a great deal of difference.

Today we read Exodus 28-30.  My link takes you to the Biblegateway site that has many versions and translations.  This particular passage is from the Common English Bible, the one I am currently using for my devotional time.

Bible in a Year: Exodus 22 -24 #CEB

This is the time where we begin to refine our habit of reading the Bible everyday.  If you started on Day 1 with us, you have read enough that you now have your patterns for this adventure.  All of us have missed a day, some of us have missed more.  Even if you are just starting today there is still 11 months left to go this year.  You CAN do this, and the rewards are amazing.

Today we read Exodus 22-24.  My link takes you to the Biblegateway site that has many versions and translations.  This particular passage is from the Common English Bible, the one I am currently using for my devotional time.

Bible in a Year: Exodus 4-6 #CEB

Today we see Moses beginning his preparations for leading his people out of slavery.  Many times we are called to something as a person or as a church and we fail to do so because of fear.  How has fear played a role in your life?  How has God supported you through this fear?
