Exodus Series Outline
A GOSPEL-CENTERED SURVEY OF THE BOOK
“Seek to see and feel the gospel as bigger as years go by rather than smaller. Our temptation is to think that the gospel is for beginners and then we go on to greater things. But the real challenge is to see the gospel as the greatest thing - and getting greater all the time” - John Piper
We believe that our journey through the Book of Exodus will do just this - make the gospel big. That Exodus will help the gospel-centered people and church we’re striving to be keep our gospel-center from becoming small and disconnected from the rest of life. Because, as we get older, the church gets larger, life gets messier, and we put more distance between the present and the moment we first believed, we need a gospel that keeps pace.
Ask yourself:
Do you struggle to “apply the gospel” to your life? Then remember the exodus.
Do you have a small or one-dimensional gospel? One that doesn’t make you say, “Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?” (Ex 15:11). Then remember the exodus.
Do you have a one-sided gospel that focuses mostly on what you were saved FROM, but not what you’ve been saved FOR? Then remember the exodus.
Check out the outline below. Learn how the saints of old “looked back” to the exodus. Take in the many “glorious deeds” of God and see how Christ perfects them. Study the Scripture references provided. Encounter the God of the gospel and watch this shape your heart and mind. Expect that as we journey through this book, the gospel will be growing greater and greater in our eyes.
