    Part 2 of the Sermon Series, "God of Elisha."

    One lesson Israel learned from God is that when they honor God, God honors them. God takes care of them. God works with them and for them. Nevertheless, if they dishonor God, God judges them. God deals with Israel in the context of covenant faithfulness. That is what we learn in this story of two ...read more

    We don't mind going to the cross as long as we can take a number of comfortable and convenient things along with us. Jesus does not call us to comfort. He calls us to die.
