The Cry for Renewal

May 12, 2019 Speaker: Series: Job

Scripture: Job 14:7–14:17, 2 Corinthians 4:16–4:18, 2 Corinthians 12:8–12:10, Isaiah 42:1–42:4

Often when we find ourselves in the midst of suffering we wonder when it will end. We ask the question, “Is there hope beyond what I am currently experiencing?” Which is why it is no surprise that Job, in the midst of his own suffering, calls out to God for the one thing only he can give: new life. He uses the metaphor of a tree being pruned and asks the question to which only God can answer, “If someone dies, will they live again?”
