Exodus

What sets you apart?

Is it a particular skill or talent? Your appearance? Maybe it's your success in accomplishing something that few others have. Or is it your relationships-your spouse, your family, or perhaps who you know? What about your personality and the way you treat others? Or fame?

There are countless ways to be unique. But we all desire to be set apart. We long to be known for something, and we crave belonging to something (or someone) greater than ourselves.

The book of Exodus demonstrates how God is the unmatched expert at setting people apart. He first accomplishes this by being set apart, or holy, Himself. He is altogether distinct from His creation-wholly perfect, infinite, wise, powerful, and eternal. Yet instead of simply proving His holiness, Exodus reveals that He also invites us into it. Just as God sets apart individuals and nations in this riveting narrative, we will learn that He wants to set us apart as well-both from the world and for His glory.
