In Hosea 8, we see the law of sowing and reaping applied to the Israelites. They had sown to the wind and would reap the whirlwind. Just like in our own lives, they experienced the upfront and the hidden costs of sin. God had appointed a place and way of worship, but the people went their own way. Popular thought today says there are many roads to peace with God, but is this what the Bible says? Join us as we look at Hosea 8.

What a thought-Jesus came for everyone, including the lowly.

Paul shows us that the Christian begins with grace and continues with grit. By God's grace we can have the grit we need to finish our race well.

As God continues to lay out His case against Israel, we discover how badly He wanted to heal them. We also see how dead set Israel was to continue in her sins. God loves to rescue sinners and draw them to Himself. So much so, that if we die in our sins, we cannot lay that at His feet. Through several different word pictures, Hosea reveals to Israel that their refusal to be healed caused them to be worthless, senseless, and useless. In Christ, we have freedom and victory in life. It is ours based on our being in Christ. Will we live out those truths and redeem the time? Join us as we examine Hosea 7.

The Humble King-Luke 2:1-7. A powerful king is now in authority of the modern world but he is no match for the King who is coming to be born

Let’s look at the faith an unnamed slave girl who had great faith in spite of her heartbreaking circumstances (Kids Sunday).

Coming home to the Lord is sometimes the hardest thing to do, but it is absolutely the best thing for us. God shows us His heart for His people in Hosea 6, and the message is clear: God's correction is for our benefit. He wounds Israel to bind her up. At the end of the day, Israel missed the heart of the matter. Simply put, God wants the heart - the inner man. God is far more concerned with who we are than how we appear. Join us as we dive to the heart of the matter.

Oftentimes, God calls us to be active when we least expect or “feel” like it. We may find ourselves saying, like Ezra did, “at such a time!?” In those moments when helping others falls outside of our talents and timeline, extending grace is what we are called to do.

Many of us experience times when God feels distant. While we know that God will never leave or forsake us, did you know that there are ways to prepare your life for His presence? There are some conditions for God’s active presence in our lives. Join us as we look at four things we can check up on as we prepare our lives for His presence.

In Hosea 5, God utters two phrases over Israel. The first is, "I know," and the second is, "I will go." With these two phrases, God tells the people that He is aware of their determination toward sin and His own determination in their judgment. For those who are in Christ, the blessed truth is that God knows you wholly and love you completely. The judgment for your sin was poured out upon the Lord Jesus Christ. Join us tonight as we look at Israel's determination and doom.
