A Curious Student's Guide to the Book of Exodus: Enduring Life Lessons for the Twenty-First Century

No matter how many times you have read stories from the Bible there is always something new to learn from the lives of its characters and the challenges they face. This is especially true for the book of Exodus and this second Curious Students Guide will help your children glean new insights into the Exodus narrative. This book will guide your children to these lessons by first summarizing key stories from Exodus and then asking thought-provoking questions. Consider the following example: Every reader of Exodus knows that Moses is its hero but how many are aware of Miriams heroism? Miriam is six years old when Moses is born. Very often adults tell six-year-old children that they are too little to do this or that. But it is Miriam who approaches Pharaohs daughter after she pulls baby Moses from the river to ask Shall I go and get you a Hebrew woman to nurse the child for you? How dare any slave especially a child speak to Pharaohs daughter and tell her what to do? Miriam dares and by highlighting her bravery this book challenges young readers to think about what they can accomplish by speaking up. With this Curious Students Guide in hand your children will discover similarly important life lessons they can apply to their own lives.
