Exodus is the Rosetta stone for unlocking the Old Testament and the
thread of redemption throughout Scripture. The exodus served as the
primary model of God’s idea of redemption, not just in the Old
Testament but even in the New, where it is used as one of the keys to
understanding the meaning of the cross of Christ. Over six sessions,
participants in this Bible study will walk through the first 15
chapters of Exodus. You’ll relive the experience as God hears the cries
of His people and responds by sending a deliverer, ultimately giving us
a pattern for recognizing His work in the world. (6 sessions)
Session Topics:
• Problem
• Deliverer
• Discouragement
• Deliverance
• Redemption
• Worship

As one of America’s foremost experts on leadership, Dr. John C. Maxwell believes that people need to master skills in four areas if they want to be successful. In The 4 Pillars of Leadership, these four crucial areas are called the four pillars, because they are key features of successful leadership.
The four pillars are:
- Relationships: connecting with others
- Equipping: helping others to achieve their potential
- Attitude: make or break ingredient of success
- Leadership: influence others around you
The 4 Pillars of Leadership asks questions such as: How can I gain the trust of others? What is my most important relationship? Whom should I equip? How can I inspire others to excel? How can I grow as a leader? How does attitude influence leadership?
The answers to these questions will show you how positive, goal-oriented leadership can make you stand out in your organization, and how your leadership skills will help you to go all the way to the top.
