About this episode

The episode features a message from The Rev Susan Thomas focusing on God's guidance and redemption through scripture.

This is the message from The Rev Susan Thomas to Greenfield Presbyterian Church in Berkley, MI.

The Israelites went up out of the land of Egypt ready for battle. Exodus 13:21-22 21 The Lord went in front of them during the day in a column of cloud to guide them and at night in a column of lightning to give them light. This way they could travel during the day and at night. 22 The column of cloud during the day and the column of lightning at night never left its place in front of the people. Isaiah 43:1-3 Don’t fear 43 But now, says the Lord— the one who created you, Jacob, the one who formed you, Israel: Don’t fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are mine. 2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; when through the rivers, they won’t sweep over you…
