    In this sermon, I talk about repentance from indifference: first, the devastation that indifference has caused to the people of Judah in the book of Joel; secondly, what repentance should consist of in our lives today.

    Say “It’s about my heart!” I. The background from which Joel speaks. 1. Here, in chapter 2, Joel begins by talking about a disaster that is coming to the people of Judah. 2. An “army” of locusts has come into Judah, devastating the land. 3. Today, we may not fully understand the devastation ...read more

    Christians are to sound the alarm of judgment, but also the alarm to repent. We warn, but also offer the hope found in repentance.

These were adult locusts that came from the northeast and moved toward the southwest in clouds so thick they obscured the sun. The females were 2.5 to 3 ...read more
