The episode explores the challenging narrative of the 10th plague in Exodus, discussing God's love amidst discomfort.

This week on the Beyond Sunday Podcast, we continue our monthly series on difficult passages of Scripture by exploring the death of the firstborn in Exodus. It’s a challenging section of the Bible, and we wrestle honestly with our discomfort while considering how God’s love might still be seen in the middle of a troubling story. Plus… are Reese’s tasting a little fake these days? All that and more.
