Advent Episode: Out of Egypt

In this special Christmas week episode of “From the Well to the World,” Pastor Dee and Bernie invite listeners to journey from the darkness of captivity to the dawn of deliverance. The episode opens with a heartfelt reflection on what it means to feel trapped and the hope that comes when rescue seems impossible.

Listeners will hear how God’s love and mercy broke through centuries of suffering, how Moses led Israel to freedom, and how Jesus, retracing Israel’s steps, fulfilled the promise of redemption for all. The episode weaves together biblical history, prophecy, and the Christmas story, inviting everyone to reflect on the meaning of deliverance and the hope that Christ brings to every captive heart.

Join Pastor Dee and Bernie for prayer, encouragement, and a reminder that God’s rescue is not just a story of the past, but a promise for today. Inspired by Kevin DeYoung’s “The Biggest Story, Advent,” this episode offers hope and inspiration for the season.
