Psalms 106:1-48. Verses 37 and 38, child sacrifice. What is my church doing about the abortion holocaust? My role?
Isaiah 49:1-26. Verse 8, in what way does it seem that my timing and God’s timing are at odds right now? What’s the remedy?
Revelation 18:1-20. Economic ruin accompanies Babylon’s downfall. What great holdings of money and power are threatened by Christ’s coming kingdom? Are my own possessions secure?
Luke 23:20-26. Verse 26, what can I learn from Simon of Cyrene at this Advent season?
