Reflection 2 | Week 2 | The Room That Forgot the Sun

Week 2, Reflection 2 explores Exodus 8:15 and the repeated hardening of Pharaoh’s heart to show how small, repeated refusals can turn into a settled resistance to God’s light. Through the image of a room that keeps its curtains closed, the episode explains how habits and neglect either open us to God’s light or let us grow comfortable in darkness, making clear that hardening is often gradual and self-made rather than sudden.

Week 1, Reflection 2 in our study through the Book of Exodus.

Reflection 1 | Week 1 | The Quiet Life in Midian

Welcome to Week 1, Reflection 1, in our guided study through Exodus, focusing on the life of Moses. This episode reflects on Exodus 3:4-6, the burning bush that breaks into Moses’ settled life in Midian, calling him to turn aside and discover God’s presence: "I will be with you." It explores how ordinary contentment can become spiritual complacency and invites listeners to notice where God might be asking them to go deeper. The episode also includes reflection questions and a deep dive into the quiet resistance of Shipra and Pua, midwives who refuse Pharaoh’s orders, showing how small acts of courage begin the story of deliverance.
