Exodus Bible Study

The story of the Exodus, from the book of Exodus chapters 1-20, tells the story of how God created a nation out of a rag-tag band of slaves. He called a prophet, Moses, and a people, the Israelites, to himself. God taught this group of people to worship him, to live for his glory, and to act together as a nation chosen by God.

Through the story of the Exodus, our children can learn more about who God is. After all, as God taught his people to follow and obey him, he also taught them more about himself.

This Exodus Bible study is an engaging way for your children to learn nine attributes of God, the Ten Commandments, and the story of how God led his people from slavery to freedom.

Moses and the Exodus Study

God’s story of the Exodus from Egypt is miraculous. Through his rescue of his people, God taught us: God is faithful. He desires to be known to us. God is sovereign, our Savior, and he is with us. There’s more: God is our all-powerful provider, he’s victorious, and he is holy.

These are the lessons that God taught to his people, the Israelites, and they are the lessons he teaches us today through the story of the Exodus. That’s the lesson we want our kids to take away from reading about God’s rescue of his people.

Your unit study on the Exodus is based on the fun, 95-page biography, Why Did the Exodus Happen?, which explains the history of the Exodus, and nine attributes of God.

• Why Did the Exodus Happen? by Danika Cooley | Why Did the Exodus Happen? (Christian Focus Publications, 2024) is an engaging narrative about how God led his people from slavery, taught them who he is, and taught them how to worship him.
  • You can also purchase Why Did the Exodus Happen? from Thinking Kids Press. Or, purchase all three Who What Why | Exodus books.
    
• 10 Plagues of Egypt Wheel | Kids will build a wheel showing the order and content of the ten plagues God brought on the Egyptians, until the Pharaoh let God’s people go.
• Moses and the Red Sea Stick Puppets | Your kids will create Bible stick puppets with figures for Moses, Aaron, Pharaoh and his horse and chariot, two Egyptians, camels, and the parting Red Sea. These puppets will allow the kids to narrate the story of the parting of the Red Sea.
• Moses and the 10 Commandments Booklet | Your kids will build a booklet on the Ten Commandments in either ESV or KJV, crafting little pictures to help them better understand and remember the meaning of each Commandment.
• Why Did the Exodus Happen? Lapbook | With the Exodus lapbook, your children will delve deeper into what they’ve learned, including:
  • The impact of the Exodus on the Old Testament world, on the Church, and on your child’s world.

“As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.” – Psalm 16:3, ESV  

Christian History Matters for Our Kids.

History matters. Now, more than ever, we see how important it is for our children to know and understand history and the Bible.

Here’s why:

• God is the sovereign ruler of all things. It’s important for our kids to see his hand in the history of nations and in the lives of both peasants and kings. 
• Christian history is the story of our family history. Our kids get to see how people who love Jesus follow him.
• Understanding history can help our kids learn historic and biblical theology. They learn what the Bible says and what that means for us. They also see when the study of Scripture has taken important turns that have changed the Church.   
• Reading Christian biographies and history can be a wonderful way for kids to think outside their own time and culture. God’s Church spans centuries and includes people from every nation.    
• Christian biographies help kids consider their own faith, walk with Jesus, and the impact their witness may one day have on others–and on history. 

Elementary-aged kids need middle grade resources that are fun, a little sassy, and that teach valuable lessons. 

The Who What Why Series is the perfect resource to teach your kids about history, while helping them apply biblical truths to their lives today.
