Lamentations: A Prophet’s Broken Heart
The ravages of war and the consequences of disaster are usually beyond belief or description. Few are those who can capture the tragic scene in words. Jeremiah was one of the few. His brief, biting journal of what he saw and felt following the fall of his beloved nation is contained in this short book.
None but the Lonely Heart
Now that we have introduced everyone to Jeremiah, and have surveyed all five chapters in Lamentations, we're ready to dig into the first chapter.
Coming to Terms With God's Wrath
Chuck Swindoll continues his study of Lamentations by looking at one of the darkest chapters of Scripture that describe the extreme suffering endured during the destruction of Jerusalem.
You Are Loved
God’s love is not fickle, moody, or conditional. His lovingkindness never ceases. You are loved by God.
The Love of God
When your life goes sideways and bad things happen, it’s easy to question God’s love. But it doesn’t make it less true. God loves us, even when life doesn’t make sense.
Infectious Preaching
Walking by faith is never boring; in fact we can become kind of infectious. Each day we have an opportunity to draw others closer to Christ by living out the Gospel.
What to Remember When You Hit Bottom
Finally, when we come to the third chapter of Lamentations, we find something in Jeremiah's sad journal that's encouraging! The prophet offers a bright ray of hope, and we're ready to hear it.
God’s Mysterious Immutability
Hear Pastor Chuck Swindoll discuss how God’s immutability and faithfulness work in tandem.
Ugly Scenes of Utter Humiliation
