10 Jeremiah 23:9-33 Who should we listen to?

Feb 1, 2017 | 01 Podcasts, Jeremiah

We live in a world of a million conflicting voices today. You can be constantly updated with tweets, texts, alerts and notifications. Which voice has authority? Which voice can be trusted? In Jeremiah 23:9-33, God addresses this issue of these different voices, criticizing those prophets who claim to speak for Him, but really don’t. In 23:1-8, the Lord called out Judah ’s political leaders; in this section He calls out her spiritual leaders.

09 Jeremiah 23:1-8 Who will help us out of this mess?

Jan 25, 2017 | 01 Podcasts, Jeremiah

Today’s leaders promise hope and change only to deliver corruption and scandal. We elect bright promising outsiders who go to Washington and immediately become insiders. They cease fighting for the ideals they promised in the campaign and start fighting to keep themselves in power. Who can make things right? Who will help us out of this mess?

With Absalom dead, Joab blows the trumpet to end the battles and the civil war is over. Except David is still in exile.

19 2Samuel 18 The Death of Absalom

Jan 11, 2017 | 01 Podcasts, Samuel

2 Samuel 18 is the climatic battle for the throne. But instead of highlighting the ferocity of the battle, the spotlight focuses on David’s anxiety over his son, and how the news of Absalom’s death impacts him, especially when he learns that the price of rebellion is the death of his son. It is a price David cannot bear to pay, but it is a price God pays for us. David’s grief gives us a glimpse of the price our heavenly father was willing to pay on our behalf.

Nov 30, 2016 | 01 Podcasts, Samuel

The sins of David’s sons repeat and magnify David’s sin. David’s crime was against the wife of a friend. Amnon sins against a sister. The consequences of the first were death of a husband and baby. The consequences of the second was civil war. But why do the consequences fall so heavily on Tamar?
