Sermon Series on Elijah - June 2019
What does your faith mean to you when times are hard, when you feel in a minority as a Christian? When you see injustice and wonder what you should do? These important themes are all being addressed this month in our five-week sermon series on stories from the Old Testament about Elijah and Elisha. Elijah looked and spoke tough, but his inner life was full of fear and self-doubt. Yet God used him as a powerful witness to truth and justice in his society. How about you?
