    THAT YOU MAY KNOW

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Exodus 7–13 and reveal how the story of the plagues and the Passover is ultimately an Easter story about Jesus Christ. What begins with Moses standing before Pharaoh unfolds into a powerful reminder of who God is — a God who patiently reaches, teaches, and invites. Even through the plagues, the Lord is not just delivering Israel, but continually giving opportunities for hearts to soften and recognize Him. At the center of it all is the Passover. A lamb without blemish, blood on the doorposts, and a people being saved from death — all pointing directly to Jesus Christ. This moment becomes more than a historical rescue; it becomes a pattern of redemption. The same way the Israelites were delivered, we are reminded that Christ is the Lamb who saves, whose sacrifice allows death to pass over us and gives us a new beginning. This episode invites us to see Easter more clearly — not just as a single event, but as a story written throughout scripture. A story of a God who sees, hears, and remembers, and who is always working to rescue His people. Because Easter is the promise that through Jesus Christ, deliverance is real, redemption is possible, and a new life can begin.

    OUTSTRETCHED ARMS

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman begin the book of Exodus and explore the early chapters of Moses’s story. From courageous midwives to a compassionate princess, this lesson highlights the quiet faith of women who helped shape the beginning of Israel’s redemption story. Through Moses’s rescue, his years in the wilderness, and the moment God appears in the burning bush, these chapters reveal a God who turns ordinary places into holy ground. Even in seasons that feel forgotten, silent, or ordinary, God is still working behind the scenes to prepare deliverance. If you’ve ever wondered where God is in the middle of waiting, mistakes, or ordinary life, this episode is a reminder that He still sees, He still hears, and He is still working to redeem the story.

    BUT GOD

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue the story of Joseph in Genesis 42–50 and watch the cliffhanger finally unfold. What once looked like betrayal, prison, and loss slowly reveals a story where God was working the whole time. As Joseph’s brothers return during the famine, the story becomes a powerful picture of Christ’s character. Through hidden mercy, undeserved generosity, and a carefully unfolding plan, Joseph’s actions begin to mirror the heart of Jesus — a Savior who sees us fully, works for our good even when we cannot see it, and offers grace far beyond what we deserve. This episode is a reminder that even when the story feels unfinished, God is still writing. And in the end, the same truth echoes through every chapter: what others may intend for harm, God can still turn into something good.

    I WILL BE WITH YOU

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Genesis 37–41 and step into the story of Joseph, a story that moves from the pit, to the palace, to the prison, and reminds us that God is present in every season. What begins with favoritism, jealousy, and a coat of many colors quickly turns into betrayal and a seemingly empty pit. Yet over and over again, scripture repeats the same steady promise: the Lord was with Joseph. In slavery, in false accusation, in forgotten years in prison, God was still writing the story, preparing, positioning, and prospering him in ways Joseph could not yet see. This episode invites us to consider our own pits and prisons and ask where the Lord might already be at work. Because the promise was never that we would avoid hard seasons, but that He would be with us through them, redeeming the story in His time.

    EVERYTHING GOOD

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman walk through Genesis 24–33 and step into one of the greatest story arcs in all of scripture. From Isaac and Rebekah’s love story to Jacob’s rivalry with Esau, these chapters remind us that God writes beautiful stories through very imperfect people. What begins as a rom-com at a well slowly unfolds into betrayal, broken relationships, wilderness nights, and wrestling prayers. Yet in the middle of deception, fear, and family mess, God shows up. He meets Jacob in a no-name place, speaks promises over him at rock bottom, and reveals Himself as the God who brings ladders, angels, and grace into the most undeserving moments. This episode is a reminder that the scriptures do not hide the complicated parts of our humanity. Instead, they reveal a God who meets us there, who turns shame into altars, who gives new names, and who helps us prevail. If you have ever wondered whether your story is too messy for God to redeem, this lesson is for you.

    GOD WILL BE SEEN

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue Abraham’s story in Genesis 18–23 and watch the promises of God begin to unfold in real and messy ways. From radical hospitality to wilderness rescues, these chapters reveal a God who shows up, pursues, and provides. The lesson begins with Abraham running to welcome divine visitors on an ordinary afternoon, reminding us that the Lord appears in everyday moments and that we choose how fully we invite Him in. Placed beside it is Lot’s story, where lingering and looking back contrast with Abraham’s trust. Yet even there, the rescue continues. In houses of sin and cities on the brink, God still calls, “Escape,” revealing a heart determined to save. Genesis 21 and 22 then place two powerful stories side by side. In the wilderness, Hagar discovers the God who sees and provides a well where she least expects it. On Mount Moriah, Abraham and Isaac walk together toward a sacrifice, and the Lord provides a ram, foreshadowing the Lamb who would come later. In both stories, we see the same truth: whether in personal wilderness or eternal need, Jehovah Jireh is the God who provides. These chapters invite us to remember the mountains in our own lives where the Lord has seen us and supplied what we needed. He is the God who comes unto us, who rescues, and who provides, again and again. Chapters: 00:00 INTRO 03:28 "Divine Encounter on Ordinary Day" 06:37 "Hospitality and Generosity in Tradition" 12:01 "Hospitality Reflects God's Presence" 14:51 "Lot's Hesitation and Sodom's Fate" 19:26 "God's Pursuit and Presence" 21:40 "God's Rescuing Heart" 26:54 "Trust and Surrender in Faith" 31:04 Hagar: God Hears the Forgotten 34:32 "The Lord Will Provide" 35:46 "Genesis 22: A Slow Journey" 40:20 "The Lord Will Provide" 42:15 "Jehovah-Jireh: The Lord Provides" Sign up for the Don’t Miss This newsletter at www.dontmissthisstudy.com #dontmissthis #comefollowme NEWSLETTER LINK: The Don’t Miss This video, the prayer poster, and tip-ins for kids, teens, couples and individuals can all be found in this week’s newsletter.

    CROSS MY HEART

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman jump into Abraham’s story in Abraham 1 and Genesis 12–17 and start building a picture of God as a God of promises. The stars become the symbol for this week, a reminder that the Lord’s goodness is multiplying, personal, and still true every time you look up at the night sky. They begin with Abraham’s rescue on the altar and the tender way Jehovah introduces Himself: “My name is Jehovah.” From there, the lesson becomes an introduction to who God is, what He’s like, and what He promises to do for His children. You’ll see a God who hears, comes down to deliver, takes you by the hand, and leads you forward even when the future feels uncertain. As the class moves into Genesis, they walk through the promises of the Abrahamic covenant, not just as ancient history, but as living promises for ordinary, messy, faithful people. God promises blessing, protection, purpose, and multiplication, and He invites Abraham to become part of the work of blessing all the families of the earth, including a powerful rescue moment where Abraham pursues Lot like a type and shadow of the Savior. The episode ends in Genesis 15 with one of the most hope filled covenant scenes in scripture. Abraham asks “How will I know?” and God answers by making a covenant of grace, walking through the pieces Himself as if to say, I will keep My promises, and I will cover yours too. When you need the reminder, look to the stars and remember the kind of God who guarantees hope.

    GOD REMEMBERED

    In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Genesis 6–11 and Moses 8 and return to one of the most familiar stories in scripture, not to focus on the storm, but to see the heart of God in the middle of it. This lesson invites us to read the flood through cross vision and notice the mercy woven throughout the chapter. God grieves, God provides an ark with room, God gives light in the darkness, and God remembers Noah when the waters feel like they are prevailing. If you are in a season where you feel like you are treading water and wondering when rest will come, this episode is for you.
