God Is Not a Fluffy Cat
Manage episode 500815622 series 1206009
In this week's sermon, we explore Jeremiah 23:23-29, examining how we often try to contain and domesticate God to fit our human expectations. Using imagery of cats in boxes, wheat and straw, and various types of hammers, we consider the difference between temporary comfort and lasting spiritual nourishment. The sermon addresses current events like challenges to civil rights, connecting them to the biblical call for justice and authentic prophecy. Through Jeremiah's metaphors of fire and hammer, we examine what it means to speak difficult truths in love while resisting the temptation to soften God's transformative word.
