Sunday, June 23 Traditions online worship service.
This week in the With-God Life we begin to consider The People of God in Rebellion, part 1. Despite the people’s often extreme unfaithfulness, God never passes judgment or takes disciplinary action before warning them about the consequences of their actions. God always sends messengers, emissaries, or prophets to warn the people that their abandonment of the law, their worship of other gods, their neglect of the poor would bring disaster upon their heads. The prophets provide profound models for our spiritual formation because they worked in a context similar to our own. They followed God’s voice and provided guidance to God’s people at a time when the culture at large did not want to hear their message. We’ll look at the call of two of these prophets this week: Isaiah and Jeremiah and the message God gives them.
Isaiah 6
Jeremiah 1
