Changed By God To Make A Difference For God

What does Babylonian exile have to do with our circumstances? Jeremiah 29:11 may be one of the most-taken-out-of-context verses in all of scripture. Jeremiah's response to false prophecy tells us more about the nature of God than our individual plans. In this sermon, Alex Shaver explores Jeremiah 29 and its implications for the church today. Lectionary texts for today are Jeremiah 29.1, 4-7; Psalm 66.1-11; 2 Timothy 2.8-15; Luke 17.11-19.
