Christianity offers the hope of an enormously bright future—one where we walk in harmony with God and each other. Even when we find ourselves in seasons of exile, uncertainty, or waiting, God’s promises remain steady. He is not finished with us, and He will bring restoration, renewal, and joy beyond what we can currently see.

While the topic of God’s judgment can make many of us uncomfortable, it is a repeated theme throughout Scripture and in the book of Jeremiah. This week, we study one such passage and see that God’s judgment is not only a necessary response to evil and injustice, but it is also a key way that we see the depth of His love for us.

The Bible—and the book of Jeremiah in particular—is filled with commands and warnings. Yet as Christians, we believe our reconciliation with God rests not on what we do, but on what Jesus has done for us. So what role do these rules play? Are they optional, or are we meant to keep them? And if obedience matters, how does that fit with Jesus fulfilling the law on our behalf? This week, we’ll examine the purpose of the law, its limitations, and how Christ completes what we never could.

We’ve all been there, at the precipice of some decision. We knew what we should do, but we also knew what we wanted to do—and those weren’t the same. We knew it was wrong, but we wanted it anyway. It looked so good, so enticing. So we went for it. And then we found out. While it might have been great initially, it eventually emptied us of joy, and in some cases, it hurt even worse. Such is the nature of sin. It’s not only harmful to us, it’s harmful to others, and it’s harmful to the world at large. This week, we will look at some of the effects of sin, why it’s so enticing, and how to escape.

We probably all notice that something is wrong with the world, but what is it? Has the world always been like this, or was there a point in time when the problems started? More importantly, how will it get fixed? (Or will it?) This week, we will see the cause of all our problems, what God thinks about it, and ultimately, what He will do to restore what is broken.

Is everyone designed with a special purpose or only some people? Does God knit each one of us together with a certain plan in mind? This week, we will study God's intentionality with Jeremiah and how it isn't just his story—it's all of ours.
