"Strength to Endure" (Isaiah 65:17-25, Luke 21:5-19)

Rev. Dr. Marjorie E. NunesRev. Dr. Marjorie E. Nunes, November 13, 2016
Part of the Sunday series, preached at a Sunday service

The disciples were being persecuted by an oppressive government. They were powerless and under immense pressure. Everything seemed dark and hopeless, so much so that they wondered if the "end" was near. They were desperate, blinded by their anxiety and totally unable to see into the future. But they are no different than us. Whenever things are happening in the world of epic proportions, like hurricanes, wars, catastrophes or plagues, there are those who believe that the world is coming to an end. This Luke text tell us: “When you hear of wars and uprisings, keep your head and don't panic.”
