Our Next Sermon Series
Waiting on God in the Wilderness
Like it or not, these last few months have been a departure from the stability and prosperity that has characterized America this past decade. It’s also been a time unlike any the Church has faced in nearly a century. It’s been difficult. Confusing. Even painful at times. Like walking through a wilderness.
It might surprise you, but “the wilderness” is a strong theme that’s carried through the storyline of Scripture. The nation of Israel, individuals like Moses and David, even Jesus Himself and the Apostle Paul had significant and prolonged experiences wandering painfully and even sometimes seemingly aimlessly through a literal wilderness. But in every single wilderness experience, God was up to something. Something Good. Something redemptive. Something transformative.
Over these next six weeks, we’re going to ask God to direct our eyes to Him through His Word as we reflect on this past season of wilderness and find out just what He might be up to in our city, in our church and in our lives.
