At Access Theology we believe that theology should be accessible to all.
Through online courses, local church partnerships and on-demand resources, Access Theology exists to equip the believer and resource the church through high-quality, engaging and accessible biblical and theological content.
This is a 5-week online course running on Wednesday evenings over Zoom.
The miraculous event of the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt is one of the most remarkable and theologically rich stories of the entire Bible. It is a story which teaches us about the gracious, faithful and covenantal nature of God, and it allows us to build firm theological foundations upon which we can fully understand what Jesus accomplished through his death and resurrection.
Over five weeks, we will unpack the story of the Exodus; beginning with the opening words of the book of Genesis and following the life of Moses and the Israelites from their time in Egypt to their deliverance into the wilderness. Each week we will explore what we can learn about the nature of God, whilst also unpacking how the Exodus story is the central story of salvation in the Old Testament which points us forward to the cross.
