Today we will continue our sermon series in the book of Jeremiah called Jeremiah: The Prophet and His Message. Pastor Ben Kramer shares a sermon called "The Message: Under Siege". The Scripture passages are Jeremiah 4 and John 3:1-8. 
 
The people see the armies coming to lay siege to Jerusalem. This is a judgement that we see spoken upon all of Israel for straying from God. Yet the early verses of Jeremiah 4 are a call back to the Lord and to in essence let their old sinful habits die off, and to live a new life for God. We see from Jesus what that means for us today. That to be a part of the Kingdom of God and that we are called to be born again. We need to make an intentional choice to change actions and follow God.

Today we will continue our sermon series in the book of Jeremiah called Jeremiah: The Prophet and His Message. Pastor Mike Engbers shares a sermon called "The Message: A Community That Turns Away". The Scripture passages are Jeremiah 2:1-22 and John 2:13-24.
 
We can be distracted from God’s love and grace and get sidetracked, even forgetting who God has called us to be. We see that is what Judah is accused of despite all God had done for Israel. Even Jesus encountered this in the cleansing of the temple, but what we have to be thankful for is God sent Jesus to draw us back to Him, and to offer us forgiveness so we have a renewed relationship with the Triune God through the grace and sacrifice of Jesus.From this, we should remember what God has done – do what we need to root ourselves in the truth of God’s good works and not be distracted by the world, and embrace the renewed relationship with God we have in Jesus.

Today we will continue our sermon series in the book of Jeremiah called Jeremiah: The Prophet and His Message. Pastor Mike Engbers shares a sermon called "The Prophet: Jeremiah's Call". The Scripture passages are Jeremiah 1:4-19 and John 1:6-17.
 
Jeremiah is called to ministry, he feels ill equipped but God promises He will equip him. The promise for Jeremiah is not one of peace but of struggle and strife for Judah. We are not called into the good, but into the broken. What are we being called into? Do we avoid God’s calling seeking only what is good for us, are we willing to go where there is struggle and brokenness? We are called to serve the risen King. We are equipped not by ourselves, but by God through His spirit.

Today we will conclude our sermon series in the book of Daniel called Facing Lions. Pastor Ben Kramer shares a sermon called "The Four Beasts". The Scripture passages are Daniel 7 and Revelation 1:4-8.
This is a passage that is often connected with the End Times discussions, but what we often neglect is the initial fulfillment that we know happened. In the context of this series, this passage really highlights the spiritual reality of the battles we see Daniel and his friends living through.

Today we will continue our sermon series in the book of Daniel called Facing Lions. Shane Walker shares a sermon called "The Lion's Den". The Scripture passages are Daniel 6 and Revelation 2:8-11.
This would be the second story in Daniel that we are very familiar with and we tell children often in kid’s programs. We see this persistent push to undermine the faith of Daniel, yet Daniel does not fold to the wishes of Babylon. We also see a shift in the King’s view of Daniel and King Darius ends up praising Daniel’s God.
