Return, Restore, Renew Cry Out to God in Crisis. Series: Return, Restore, Renew Speaker: Jeremy Norton Scripture: Joel 1:13–20 Timestamps: 00:00 - Have you ever noticed how a crisis forces you to pay attention? 03:05 - When we hear the words "fast" or "solemn assembly," it can sound like old, religious language to our modern ears. 08:46 - The process is to cry out to God in crisis by embracing a designated time of prayer and fasting. 09:49 - Now, if you're new to church or just exploring Christianity, this may sound counterintuitive to human nature. 11:50 - Moving down in the text, to verse 19, we see Joel model a personal call of desperation. 13:50 - Now, let's widen our perspective a bit. 17:45 - Joel and the other prophetic writings point to a future time when God would send a Messiah. 20:21 - Crisis can be a good thing because it becomes a spiritual wake-up call. 20:56 - Prayer 21:41 - Updates 25:07 - Discussion and Prayer focus #jesus #lord #god #crisis #cryout #renewedinfaith #return #restore Support the show

Let's jump back up to verse 8. 15:15 - With all of this in mind, let's go back up to the top of the passage. 17:52 - So, how can we take Joel's warning seriously in this generation? 21:04 - God's message through Joel is both sobering and hopeful. 21:27 - Prayer 22:02 - Updates 24:01 - Discussion and Prayer Focus #jesus #lord #warning #generation #return #restore #renewal Support the show

This Sunday, discover what it means to serve God together as family. We'll explore how faith-filled families can make a real impact at home, in the church, and in the world. Joshua 24:15, is a challenge to all families to choose voluntarily to whom we want to serve. Because serving God isn't just something we do on Sundays at church, it begins around our kitchen tables, in bedtime prayers, it is how we love and lead each other every day, as a family. Joshua’s call to choose whom to serve is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus, who embodies God's covenant faithfulness and calls people into the Kingdom of God.
