Series: Control Issues
Craig Smith
Exodus 4:18-21
[00:00:00] Jeff Baxter: Hello, Mission Hills. How are you? Yeah. Good. I’m so excited about this message today. We’re wrapping up the control issue series. Today we’re looking at the last set of verses that are left for us to look at in this chapter in Exodus. And, uh, you get an extra hour of sleep, right? So you’re, you’re ready to go.
[00:00:56] I don’t know if that means I get an extra hour to talk or you, you’re just [00:01:00] more alert. I’m not sure, but we’re gonna get after it. When I think about this whole control issues series, uh, I honestly, here’s my response is it’s been for. Uh, I have a control issue problem. Um, and this is just, just being honest with you, is, is I want to control my wife and my kids and my coworkers and my schedule and all the things about my life.
[00:01:23] I want to control everything. I wanna control the weather. Anybody else just wanna control the weather? You know what that makes me? It makes me want to be God. Because when we have these control issues and we wanna control everything, what we’re saying is God is not in. I wanna be in control.

I’m a little nervous about this particular message. I’m just gonna tell you that up front because, uh, it’s difficult. It’s weird. It, it’s hard to [00:02:00] translate.
[00:02:00] There’s some verses in this whole thing that you’re gonna, you’re gonna wonder what is going. Uh, this is the adult version of the Bible, not the kids’ version. And so we, we need to dive in though, because we are a Bible driven church at Mission Hills, and so we’re gonna lean into it. Now here, here’s a little side story.
[00:02:17] Don’t tell anybody this, but, um, ...
