Sermon Series (11/26/23):

"Jehoshaphat's Folly"

In Song of Solomon, a poetic metaphor of our relationship with Jesus, we are told that, "[we are our] beloved's, and His desire is for us."  That's a powerful statement.  In other words, He is inviting us into a deep and personal relationship with Him based upon mutual love.  Jesus affirms this in Matthew chapter 22 when He tells us that the greatest of all the commandments is that we love our God first and most.  

What does it look like when we get that right?  And what happens when we begin loving anything or anyone more than God, and get that wrong?  

We look to an account on the life of King Jehoshaphat to answer those questions (2 Chronicles 17-19), and then we're asked a deeper and more penetrating question:  Is He good enough for us? 

Thanks for listening!  I hope that it's a blessing to you!
