God Still Speaks

Contributed by Patty Groot on Aug 18, 2025

This sermon on Jeremiah 23:23–29 reminds us that God is near and present, warns against false voices, and shows how His Word refines and transforms like fire and a hammer.

I want to start today with a question. It’s simple, but it cuts to the heart: “Is God still speaking? And if so, are we listening?” In Jeremiah 23, the people of Israel were surrounded by noise. Competing voices. Smooth-talking prophets. Religious leaders claiming to speak for God but whose words ...read more

— THE PROBLEM: WHY WE KEEP LOOKING BACK Life leaves us with memories. Some of them warm us. Some of them wound us. And some of them quietly shape us long after the moment has passed. Most of us don’t notice how much time we spend replaying our lives. We replay conversations we wish had gone ...read more

God’s unwavering faithfulness means He never forgets us or His promises; His presence and covenant love sustain us through every season and circumstance.

Some of us keep a shoebox of memories. A faded ticket stub from the big game. A ribbon from a graduation cap. A hospital bracelet that once wrapped a tiny wrist.

Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache behind the smile. You know the one—the ache that wonders, Do I matter? Does my life count? Have I been seen, heard, known?
