Scripture - Jeremiah 1:4-10 & 29:10-14 & Luke 13:31-35

Theme - Today, we are in the 4th part of a six part sermon sermons on six matriarchs and patriarchs from the Old Testament. On this Sunday, we focus on the prophet, Jeremiah who lived during the 6th century B.C. when Judah, the southern kingdom, was taken over by the Babylonian empire. In the midst of one of the most frightening and anxious times of Israel’s history, Jeremiah offered a word of hope to his own people which is also a word that God wants us to hear today as well.
