Passage: Jeremiah 31:31-34
March 21, 2021
Pastor Will White continued the Lent series
“Rend Your Hearts: Claiming the Promise”
The Fifth Message was
"Written on the Heart"
based on Jeremiah 31:31-34, Hebrews 5:5-10 and John 12:20-33
That the gospel is countercultural is beyond debate. But texts like this one are so subtly against our way of thinking that we might not even realize the pull to deny this proclamation even as we preach it. Yet, how can we make such a claim about a magnificent vision of the kin-dom of God? It seems something that we all long for on a regular basis, particularly during a time of unrest and division. This is a utopia worth claiming, so why would we be reluctant?
