The Hosea Generation (Part 3)
Manage episode 398389134 series 3551694
We continue our look at the Hosea Generation as we dive into the story of Hosea, a prophet commanded by God to marry a prostitute, reflecting on the symbolic significance of their first child, Jezreel and its connection to the Hosea generation - a group of passionate people consumed by their love for the Lord. This narrative parallels with the tale of Jehu from Second Kings, a king anointed to bring God's wrath upon Ahab’s dynasty. Drawing on these ancient stories, we reflect on the evangelical mission that echoes in the lives of modern-day Christians.
But our conversation doesn't stop there. We also confront a perennial confusion within Christianity - the complex relationship between faith and works. Many profess faith in Jesus outwardly yet harbor distance in their hearts. Through Proverbs, we illuminate how mercy and truth are God's tools to clear this confusion. Join us as we uncover how God invites us into a deeper understanding of faith and works, and how this wisdom will bring about a more fruitful ministry.
NEW BOOK! I'm pleased to say that we have completed a new book that has been years in the making. The Ten Shirot: Songs of Redemption looks at ten songs that were sung through pivotal times in Scripture. It's an examination of the redemption of Jesus, of worship, and of Scripture in a way that we believe you probably haven't seen before. Check it out at https://a.co/d/0a4KIooL .
