Description

In a time when a ruthless ruler orders the death of every newborn boy of a certain people, a mother’s desperate love saves her infant by placing him in a waterproof basket on the Nile. The child is found by a compassionate princess, who raises him as her own while his sister secretly arranges for his mother to care for him. Grown up and educated in the splendor of Egypt, he cannot ignore the suffering of his kin and, in a moment of fury, kills an oppressor, forcing him to flee into the wilderness.

While tending a flock near a remote mountain, the young shepherd witnesses a bush that burns without being consumed, a startling sign that draws him into a divine encounter. A voice commands him to remove his shoes and reveals a purpose: to lead his people out of bondage and into a promised future. The story follows his reluctant acceptance of this mission and the first steps toward the monumental deliverance that lies ahead.
