Every day the headlines announce more violence and evil. Our hearts groan as we wonder what life will be like for the next generation. It all seems hopeless, which is probably how Jeremiah felt as he lived among the people of the nation of Judah.
Jeremiah was a reluctant but faithful prophet who spent forty-two years serving God and warning the people to repent. His heart was saddened and angered by the people's indifference to God and the moral decay that surrounded him. Everything was falling apart--yet Jeremiah continued to seek the Lord.
As we face personal trauma and national crisis, we can learn from the prophet's example. Ray Stedman walks us through the book of Jeremiah, revealing that repentance was the only answer then--and it's the only answer today. When people repent, God is faithful to His Word, planting the seeds of new life and giving us hope.
