Telling the Truth

God allows us freedom to choose how we live, but He doesn’t allow us to choose the consequences of our decisions. That’s the painful lesson we see the people of Judah live through as they are under siege with rampant famine and plague. In such dire circumstances, is it possible to live with hope that God will ever restore His people?In this message, Stuart Briscoe explores the purpose for God’s plan in allowing Judah to be taken over by foreign rule.

Jeremiah never wanted to be a prophet. It broke his heart and endlessly frustrated him that the people of Judah would not heed his warnings of impending judgment. Even more heartbreaking for Jeremiah was living to see all that he warned about come to pass.But even as Judah is overtaken, we see that Jeremiah’s work is not yet done as he moves from a message of warning to a message of encouragement. But is it even possible to encourage a people who didn’t trust God in the first place to now trust Him during troubled times?

Though the prophet Jeremiah stays on message and warns the people of Judah about God’s coming judgment, they ignore him and outright reject God’s offer of forgiveness, repentance, and reconciliation. What happens when the people of a nation want nothing to do with God and decide to do things their own way?In this message, Stuart Briscoe examines the people of Judah as they shake their fists at God and refuse to allow Him to mold them into the nation He wants them to be.

Too often, in troubled times, man tries to fix what only God can achieve. That’s what happened in Judah—the remaining remnant of Israel—as King Josiah recognized the spiritual descent of the people and implemented societal reforms in an effort to turn people back to God. But can legislated laws ever change people’s hearts?In this message, Stuart Briscoe examines Josiah’s well-intended yet superficial attempts to solve deep-rooted heart problems in the hearts of the people of Judah.

As a follower of Christ, do you feel out of place when people reject Him? Do you shy away from opportunities to share Christ with others? The truth is, we’ve been intentionally planted to demonstrate and articulate truth to hurting people. So why do many of us freeze up when faced with the opportunity to speak up?In this message, Stuart Briscoe introduces you to Jeremiah—a reluctant, fearful man God used to speak truth into troubled Judah. You’ll learn how God desires to use you, too, to boldly live and share Christ with a confused and hurting world.

So often when we talk of peace, we think of it in terms of resolving a difficult situation. The biblical understanding of peace goes much deeper than that; and thankfully so, because the reality is that we’ll never be free from hostile environments and stressful situations.The Apostle Paul knew that and wanted us to understand the unexplainable peace that is available to believers through Jesus.In this message, Stuart Briscoe teaches from Romans 5 to explain the blessing of peace for those justified by faith. A peace unrelated to our external circumstances but related to our internal relationship with our Creator.
