Day 103: Moses' Calling and Confrontation with Pharaoh - An Immerse Bible Reading

Welcome to Day 103 of Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience. In this episode, we cover the story of Moses, from God hearing the cries of the Israelites to Moses' encounter with the burning bush at Mount Sinai. We see God instruct Moses to lead His people out of Egypt, promising divine signs to convince the elders of Israel and Pharaoh. Despite Moses' reluctance and self-doubt, God reassures him and provides Aaron as his spokesperson. The episode concludes with Moses and Aaron confronting Pharaoh, demanding the release of the Israelites, and facing increased oppression as a result of Pharaoh's resentment. Join us in this dramatic account of faith, obedience, and divine intervention.

QUICK START GUIDE
3 ways to get the most out of your experience

1. Use Immerse: Beginnings instead of your regular chapter and verse Bible. This special reader’s edition restores the Bible to its natural simplicity and beauty by removing chapter and verse numbers and other historical additions. Letters look like letters, songs look like songs, and the original literary structures are visible in each book.
2. Commit to making this a community experience. Immerse is designed for groups to encounter large portions of the Bible together
   for 8 weeks–more like a book club, less like a Bible study. By meeting every week in small groups and discussing what you read in open,
   honest conversations, you and your community can come together to be transformed through an authentic experience with the Scriptures.
3. Aim to understand the big story. Read through “The Stories and the Story” (p. 483) to see how the books of the Bible work together to tell God’s story of his creation’s restoration. As you read through Immerse: Beginnings, rather than ask, “How do I fit God into my busy life?” begin asking, “How can I join in God’s great plan by living out my part in his story?”
