Podcast 16 – Violence and Hope
This week starts on a kind of sad note as I briefly talk about the rash of shootings that have taken place across this country and the world the last few months. I feel a particular pain for the family of Pastor Fred Winters who was shoot to death while preaching from the pulpit. My thoughts and prayers go out to the congregation in Maryville, his family and the whole town. I pray that God’s overwhelming grace and peace would move with healing for that city. I look at Galatians 6:9 which encourages us to not grow weary but continue in doing good . Don’t give up my brothers and sisters.
Rich then takes us through 2 Thessalonians chapter 1 verses 11 & 12. A superficial reading simply doesn’t do this scripture justice. Rich peels back the layers and shows God’s amazing grace and love for us. It is amazing how much meaning and theology is packed into these two verses.
