“Moses”
Exodus 2-40

Moses
Complicated deliverer

Raised in Royalty as a Hebrew
Murdered a man
Ran for his life and found a wife
Had a “burning bush” experience
Suffered from a stuttering problem 
Confronted a King
Had courage against all odds 
Led the people of God across the Red Sea
Built a tabernacle for Worship
Absorbed lots of chaos
Died and was buried by God so no one would worship him
