In this week's scripture lesson (Jeremiah 36:1-8, 21-23, 27-28; then 31:31-34), the prophet Jeremiah produces a scroll calling for repentance, but the king burns it. Pastor Melinda Giese finds a few similarities between the kingdom of Judah Jeremiah was writing in and the difficult times we are living in.
Despite the dire prophecy, Jeremiah promises a new covenant, written on the heart. Pastor Melinda finds hope for us in this too.
