About this episode
Season 2 begins — and we could not have asked for a better guide to open it. In this special introduction to the Book of Exodus, we are joined by HE Archbishop Angaelos of the Diocese of London, whose wisdom and pastoral heart have inspired so many of us over the years. We are deeply honoured to have him with us.
The Book of Exodus is not just ancient history. It is the story of our lives. The children of Israel, once prosperous under Joseph, find themselves enslaved — their privileges having become golden cages. Sound familiar? God, unsatisfied with anything less than our full freedom, sends Moses to lead his people out. But the journey is rarely a straight line.
Together, we explore Exodus as a type of our own spiritual journey — from slavery to sin, through the wilderness, toward the Promised Land. We discuss Moses as a leader, the transformative gift of the Ten Commandments, the profound symbolism of the Passover, and God's tender presence in the pillar of cloud and fire.
Key questions explored:
• In what ways does our modern life mirror the slavery of Egypt?
• What does the pillar of cloud and fire tell us about God's presence in our wilderness?
• How does the Passover meal connect to the Eucharist we receive today?
• What does God's patience with a "stiff-necked" people say about his love for us?
