Building Your Faith: Exploring Scripture with the Pastors provides you a marvelous opportunity every Sunday to enjoy Biblical teaching from a passage with an MDPC pastor or staff member with seminary training. Dr. Clay Brown, MDPC Adult Discipleship Pastor, is the lead teacher, but many others join in the fun. There’s no homework, no pre-registration or class roll, but always donut holes! 

The Gospel in Moses’ Story: From Bondage to Freedom

Moses’ story in the Old Testament is key to understanding how God calls humans to love and serve today. Why? Through Moses, God works through His plot line of the Exodus from Egypt, pointing not only to the freedom of the Israelites from slavery, but also foreshadowing and revealing the ultimate freedom from sin and death we receive through Jesus Christ, God’s Son. 

We will focus on the Old Testament book of Exodus and the New Testament book of the Gospel of Matthew, with additional readings in Numbers, Deuteronomy, the Gospel of John, and 1 Corinthians in the New Testament. Most MDPC Sunday morning classes will follow this study, along with other classes and groups during the week.

This study continues our three-year all MDPC series, “The Gospel in the Old Testament.” Sunday morning classes and other classes/groups will explore how the Old Testament foreshadows and expresses the good news of Jesus Christ. We will focus on three major Old Testament figures:

  • The Gospel in Abraham’s Story: Walking by Faith (Aug 2022–Feb 2023)
  • The Gospel in Moses’ Story: From Bondage to Freedom (Aug 2023–Mar 2024)
  • The Gospel in David’s Story: After God’s Own Heart (Aug 2024–Mar 2025)

We meet at both 9:45 and 11:15am (pick one) in-person in the Amphitheater (first floor of the CLC). The Zoom options for those who can’t attend are in links below:
