This sermon had technical difficulties, so it's actually 3 separate videos. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Jeremiah 29:4-14 reminds us that even when circumstances change, God's faithfulness does not, and that our ability to live faithfully does not depend on being where we want to be. Because God holds the future, we do not have to spend the present trying to control everyone around us. We are free to love them.
