Before the Session

• Review today’s scripture text and the session activities to help better facilitate the discussion.
• Have the Bible Background Video ready to view.
• Materials needed: Paper and a pen for each person.
• Encourage your group to listen to the Faithelement podcast ahead of the next session (Share the link via email or social media)

Context

Remind the group that in this episode of the Faithelement Podcast, the team delved into Exodus 16, exploring the theme ‘A Divine Desert Diet.’ The discussion highlighted the miraculous provision of manna by God to the Israelites in the desert. Questions like these listed below were discussed. Ask your group to consider these as well.

• What was the significance of the fact that the manna had a short shelf life — it lasted just the one day?
• Does God provide enough to go around? How might people distort the notion that there is enough?
• How grateful are we for what God provides today?

Content

Read aloud Exodus 16 then share the Bible Background Video.
