A Time to Weep - God's Gift of Lament

SERMON SERIES, Sunday May 3 to July 5

God's Gift of Lament, Ma3-June 7

 

Most of us wrestle at some point with the reality of evil and suffering. Whether we are Christian or not, suffering and evil impact significantly our belief in God and our attitude toward God. For some it is the cause of their rejection of the existence of God. The world today seems to be at a crisis point, it is a profound cultural moment. How does the church serve the community in its response? And how can we be ‘prophetic’ at the same time?

Seek the Peace and Prosperity of the City

The Deacons have elected to close Hobart Baptist Church for the next two Sundays (22/03 and 29/03) due to government requirements with the Covid-19 Pandemic. This will be reviewed on April 1 by the Deacons for the safety of our congregation.

During this time we will have representatives at an online statewide Baptist service streamed through the Citywide Baptist Youtube Page or online through: https://www.citywidehobart.org.au/. Heather has already sent out an email with connection details for the service so don't forget to check any and all folders for it.

All the blessings of God to you,
May you be filled with the spirit of peace in this time.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
(Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)
