Growing up, our family vacation was Christian summer camp
We would drive through deserts of California and Arizona to Williams
- we traveled without air-conditioning and with games that grew old fast
• three of us older children were crammed in the back seat and fought a lot defending our invisible walls
• children can make that kind of eight hour journey miserable
- imagine the agitation of that drive and multiply it times 600,000
• then, extend the travel time from eight hours to forty years!
• no wonder at the end of their journey, Moses told people of Israel,
