Sermon for this week: Every U.S. citizen who pays taxes recognizes the date April 15, and most dread it. Every year millions of people wait until the final hours or minutes before the deadline to file their forms. News channels, newspapers and tax preparation commercials remind the public of the deadline, even warn of delays at the post office, for weeks prior to the deadline. Yet, despite the warnings and reminders of what could happen if one doesn’t file, millions of people wait or even fail to file on time, choosing to suffer the consequences by their inaction or inattention. In Zephaniah 2:2-3, the prophet gives a warning, a reminder, of forthcoming judgment and consequences to the society of his day. But the message is just as relevant today.
Pastor Chuck Franco will continue his series from the Old Testament prophets this coming Sunday. Even though Zephaniah’s message was one of impending judgment, there is hope and good news on this side of history.
Bible Study: “Wild Places,” by George DeJong, is a video series filmed in the Holy Land. The locations help illuminate the teaching of navigating the wild, rough places in life. Pastor Chuck leads the guided discussion questions on Wednesdays in Clubhouse 3, Room 2, at 10 a.m. This week’s lesson will follow session 2, titled “Not Tame.”
