The book of Habakkuk deals with some of the hardest questions we face in life. Why is there is there so much suffering and evil in this world? Why does God allow it? How can He be good and permit so much pain?
Habakkuk the prophet finds himself wrestling with these questions as he looks out at a world full of violence, injustice, and wickedness. Rather than criticize or accuse God, Habakkuk goes to God in humble prayer and seeks to understand.
In response, God graciously gives Habakkuk, and us, instruction in how to live by faith when our world seems to be falling apart. The book of Habakkuk teaches us that God is trustworthy and in control, His promises are certain and good, and we can trust Him when life does not make sense.
Pastor Rick begins a preaching project to preach through the Bible, one book at a time. This first sermon in this series is an overview of the Bible entitled, "The Purpose of God: from Creation to Consummation." On subsequent Sunday nights, he will take one book at a time, beginning with Genesis. Come and see how the glory of God unfolds throughout the pages of Scripture.
