Psalm 46:1-3 At times of dark discouragement, the reformer, Martin Luther, would say to his friend, ‘Come, Philip, let’s sing the 46th psalm’. But why did he turn to this one in particular? How does it help us when life is tough and our world is falling apart?
Habakkuk 3:16b-19 Stock markets in turmoil; sporting events cancelled; businesses struggling; basics running out on supermarket shelves – Habakkuk faced circumstances not dissimilar to our own. And at the end of his little book he shows us how to respond as the people of faith.
Joshua 1:1-18Sometimes life feels rather mundane. Going to work, paying the bills, pushing the trolley round the supermarket, going to church. We long to do something heroic. But the Christian life is heroic. It demands that we be strong and courageous. It’s certainly not for wimps or those who just need a crutch in life!
