When Jochebed was in labor with baby Moses, the Hebrew nation was a mere 80 years away from throwing off the chains of slavery and beginning their journey into the joy and freedom of the Promised Land. But no one knows this as she labors on the birthing stool. Pharoah has ordered the midwives to kill every newborn Hebrew male. The river Nile has become a death sentence for these babies. Surrounded by danger, Jochebed hides infant Moses for three months and then launches him into this specific river of danger. She dares to trust Yahweh with her son and proves it with an astonishing act of faith. Join Nan and Bonnie as they think through what this cost her mother's heart and how Jochebed's example brings us strength today.
