Discussion questions

  • Is it possible that God could do something unusual and strange to catch our attention like that in this day and age? 
  • Does anyone have any stories of God appearing to people in unusual ways?
  • I wonder why the bush was on fire but did not burn up?
  • I wonder why Moses took his shoes off and hid his face when God spoke to him?
  • I wonder what this story means to people who are not part of our church family? 
  • How can I help explain what God is like because of what I hear, see and feel through this story?

Prince of Egypt

Picture
The Prince of Egypt (PG, 1998) is a beautiful animated film about the life of Moses. You could also encourage families to watch the film at home, if suitable for the ages of the children. You can read the Commonsense Media review here.

Above is a clip from the film that shows this part of the story.
