And how do we hold on to hope when we feel abandoned? This passage is an invitation to learn how faith speaks when life hurts.…

Includes a bonus insight into Josh's missionary trip into Kenya at the beginning! Isaiah 18 is a prophecy filled with vivid imagery and symbolic language.

This judgment, however, is not the end, but rather a prelude to a time of redemption. But how can we best come to terms with God's timing being incompatible with our human desire to see things happen quickly?…
