STRAIGHT LINE, CROOKED STICKS: God's Faithfulness During Transition
SCRIPTURE: Numbers 22.This Sunday marked the beginning of a new chapter for ResLife. Felton Grove High School is our new worshiping home, so Sunday marked a new day for us. This move marks a transition to a new mission field. We want to be a blessing wherever the Lord leads us. Felton Grove High is embedded within several different communities with plenty of opportunities. This week, we also begin a new sermon series called Straight Line, Crooked Sticks. We will be looking at a collection of Old Testament characters who play a role in God’s redemptive plan. But they aren’t major players. They are like the supporting cast. But we will see through their broken stories that God’s faithfulness plays out no matter what.This week, we focus on the famous story of King Balak, Balaam, and a talking donkey found in Numbers 22. As entertaining as this story is, it ultimately points to God’s faithfulness. God’s promises to His people will remain despite all concerted effort. God used a very broken prophet to achieve His plan to bless Israel in the liminal space called Moab.I’m very much looking forward to diving into this series! Please pray that the Lord will use this series for His glory as the Lord continues to use us—as His very own modern-day broken sticks—to ensure His plan of salvation continues to the end.In Christ,Pastor Mark
