In Exodus 3:1-15, God tells Moses to get going in order to help the Israelite people escape Egypt and Pharaoh’s oppression. Carla Pratt Keyes, pastor of Ginter Park Presbyterian Church, in Richmond, Virginia says, “God’s grand intentions become specific human responsibilities, human vocation. It is we who must do as God said.” However, despite God’s call, Moses had a choice and we do too. “What will we do?” asks Keyes.
