Moses: A Reluctant Leader, Part 2
Though we may express it in different ways, we are all people of passion because we are created in the image of a passionate God. Passion is a useful tool for the kingdom of God, unless your zeal overcomes your discretion. In the life of Moses, we see the peril of passion as he rushes ahead and tries to force the hand of God.
