If the story of Easter is true and Jesus got out of death after he died a cruel and painful death on the cross then maybe, just maybe there is hope for all of us.

And if you have been here we have been following with people of Israel and their plight to be freed from captivity, and that is where we are going to pick up this week as we look at the 4th major movement in the book of Exodus and we are going to be spending most of our time in chap ...
