Wrestlings Wonders And Wanderers

God always has been the Great Provider. He provides for us in the midst of our abundance. He provides for us in the midst of our agony, our time of temptation, our hour of despair. He celebrates with us when our jogs triumph over our tears. So when trials come, when agony appears, when temptation knocks, remember the words of Abraham “God will provide.” (from the sermon “The Agonizing Provider”)

The 10 sermons in this book are based on First Lesson texts, primarily from Genesis and Exodus. They follow the Common Lectionary.

“(These texts) are as relevant as today’s newspaper and markedly more hopeful and helpful. Their stories and images are overflowing with insights into human nature and the mysterious workings of God in our world,” writes Justin W. Tull. “The stories reflect a myriad of human struggles, the wonders of God’s presence and power and the adventuresome journey required of the people of God.”
