In his newest book, Arthur L. Mackey Jr. lets us know that everyone in every realm of life -- believers and non-believers, journalists, reporters, and news anchors; as well as Independents, Democrats, and Republicans, are talking about moving forward. Mackey chronicles great thinkers and notable past and present day movers and shakers of history such as Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Malala Yousafzai, Joel Osteen, Oprah Winfrey, Israel Houghton, Frederick Douglas, and John Maxwell who have emphasized the importance of the concept of moving forward.
Yet Mackey makes it crystal clear when, where, why, what, and with whom this moving forward concept and conversation first began. Mackey clearly shows in Moving Forward and Making a Difference that God Himself was the Being to first proclaim the positive and progressive message that motivates the masses in drastic need of freedom and economic, social, and political change. Since God was the first to discuss the concept of moving forward. Then secular society needs to receive and respect His Word to hurting humanity in drastic need of meaning.
Exodus 14:15 records the legendary words of the Creator and Prime-Mover, "And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward." Go forward simply means, move forward. When the children Israel listened to what God said and moved forward they literally crossed the Red Sea and left out of hundreds of years of slavery in Egypt.
