Summary

In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman begin the book of Exodus and explore the early chapters of Moses’s story. From courageous midwives to a compassionate princess, this lesson highlights the quiet faith of women who helped shape the beginning of Israel’s redemption story. Through Moses’s rescue, his years in the wilderness, and the moment God appears in the burning bush, these chapters reveal a God who turns ordinary places into holy ground. Even in seasons that feel forgotten, silent, or ordinary, God is still working behind the scenes to prepare deliverance. If you’ve ever wondered where God is in the middle of waiting, mistakes, or ordinary life, this episode is a reminder that He still sees, He still hears, and He is still working to redeem the story.
