Listen "Response to Chaos"

Episode Synopsis

Following George Floyd’s death in May, we experienced weeks initially, of
shock and grief; and then, for a time, chaos, grief, senseless violence.
Some with an agenda to deliberately increase chaos and violence. How do we
respond when all is shattered? This is what Judah experienced when
Jerusalem collapsed after a year of Babylonian siege. Jeremiah 39 and 52
tell us of the fall, largely echoing the book of Kings. But then Jeremiah
40-44 gives us our only glimpse into the chaos after the fall of Jerusalem:
how will Judah, who has struggled for faith, respond when everything falls
apart?
