Jeremiah 29

Written By Lexie Miller

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our series in the book of Jeremiah.

Arguably, one of the most famous verses in the entire Bible is Jeremiah 29:11. We love it on coffee mugs, graduation cards, and tattoos, but the real story behind this verse is very sobering. It was written to a people whose whole world had just burned down, and the 'hope' God offered them came with a 70-year waiting period.

Join us as we dive into what it actually looks like to find a 'future and a hope' when life is far from perfect, and how we are called to be a blessing to our city while still being exiles waiting to go back home.
