The book of Ezra is powerful. In it, we see God do what only He can do: reclaim and redeem His people. In our sermon series, Reclaim: The Book of Ezra, you’ll be able to walk your congregation through this powerful book and apply it to their lives today.
This five-week series addresses what God did for the Jewish people throughout the events recorded in the book of Ezra. Through failure, forgetting what is important, and sin, we may become exiles attempting to return to God. However, just as in the book of Ezra God reclaimed his people according to his promises, he also reclaims and redeems our lives for his purpose in this world.
Throughout the book of Ezra, there are major themes that point us to God’s grace then and today. He still uses unlikely people to accomplish His purposes. He still reclaims us as His children when we turn to Him. Like the Israelites building the altar, God has now declared that His temple is His people. And just as the Israelites heard from God’s word, we too should hear from God’s word.
There is a lot to learn from the book of Ezra. This is a great sermon series for your congregation. When you use it, you receive a full series guide filled with teaching points and illustration ideas, a full graphics package, Photoshop layers, a bumper video, small group questions, and more.
