Quick Summary:

When we met Moses last week, he was a baby floating among the reeds of the Nile. God had a plan for him, and ironically, that plan included being raised within the very household of the Pharaoh who sought his extinction. In the next story Exodus records, Moses has grown up. While he’s out one day among the Hebrew people he sees an Egyptian beating a Hebrew slave. And aroused to anger he kills the Egyptian. Word of the incident gets around quickly and Moses flees Egypt as a fugitive.

Finding his way to the land of Midian, Moses soon is welcomed into a new family and takes on a new identity—that of shepherd. As the years pass, Moses seems to grow accustomed to his new home and role. How long did he rest in that rhythm—punch the clock? The story doesn’t say.
All we know is, one day he stepped away from his usual path and began looking for a new place to lead his flock. Moses leads his flock into uncharted territory, and suddenly he’s not in ordinary time anymore.
