Over the course of the next six or eight weeks we will be looking at Moses. Moses has been considered by most people as the greatest of all Jewish leaders (before Jesus, of course). It is hard to think of Moses without imagining the image of Charleton Heston in the famous movie, "The Ten Commandments." I especially like the way his hair looked when he came down from the mountain top after being in the presence of God. As a pastor, it would be really cool if you could have that bronzed, glowing complexion and wild, fire on the mountain of God hair. If I could look like that, then people would have to be convinced that I had a powerful and important message they needed to hear.
Anyway, as we move into looking at Moses the man, the prophet and the deliverer of Israel, I want to challenge and encourage you all to read the passages of scripture that we will be looking at each week. You will notice that every Sunday now, I put the scripture passage for the coming week's sermon in the bulletin. (For Moses, look in Exodus.) Probably most weeks I will be encouraging you to look at one chapter or so. You should be able to read that in ten minutes. Take the time. You will get more out of each week's message and it will make me happy!
I want to thank all of you for your favorable response to the series on Covenant Affirmations. If you have any questions, I hope that you will feel free to ask me.
Have a blessed week and check back from time to time as we continue to improve the web site.
Pastor Dmitri
