If you’re like most Christians, you might reach a genealogy or a list of people in Scripture, and quickly scan through it with little regard for its value. Sure, it may not be heart-warming or uplifting on the surface, but Pastor Mark challenges us in today’s message to look a little deeper and think about why those names are there. When you read the name of a loved one – of someone important to you – what do you feel? It likely revives memories and feelings that you shared with that specific person. In the same way, each person listed in Scripture is significant to God and gives us a snapshot of His work in their story.
