Joe sits down with Pastor Rob Paugh to unpack his latest message in our Exodus: The Way Through series, titled “Free at Last.”

We dive deep into Exodus 12 and beyond, exploring the dramatic moment when God delivers the Israelites from 430 years of slavery in Egypt. From the chilling tenth plague to the miraculous parting of the Red Sea, Pastor Rob brings historical and biblical insight into one of the most awe-inspiring stories of God's faithfulness and power.🚶‍♂️ Imagine 2 million people—men, women, children, and livestock—leaving Egypt in the dead of night, embarking on a 310-mile journey through the wilderness. What does this mean for us today? How does God lead us when the path isn’t the shortest, but it’s the right one?Join us as we reflect on the logistics, the miracles, and the spiritual truths behind this epic journey. And stay tuned for tomorrow’s episode, where we’ll explore how this story applies to our lives today.
