A Study of Jeremiah

Martin Burch invites you to join him for an exploration of the book of Jeremiah on Tuesdays at 2 pm starting on February 9.  The class meets on Zoom.

Jeremiah takes place during the last years of the kingdom of Judah. He warned about many of the dangers and failures that befell the kingdom as the Babylonian empire rose and finally conquered Judah. Walter Brueggemann notes that the Book of Jeremiah “speaks to and from and about deep public disruption.” We must look at Jeremiah within its historical context, while also recognizing what it says to us within our own challenging time. Because Jeremiah, for all of its warnings and challenging realities, is about hope: the hope present for the Hebrew people during the exile and the hope for all of us today. Let’s discover this hope together and live in the knowledge that God is with us wherever we find ourselves.
