Playing the Long Game in a World of Now Now Now (Sermon)

00:00 / 26:13

In an era before viral videos and mass communication, Ezekiel did some wild and jaw-dropping things. He laid on his side for over 14 months prophesying against Jerusalem while only eating food rations cooked over dung. He later shared a vision of a valley of bones coming back to life, growing skin, and re-constituting a great army.

Um, what?

His words and actions served a purpose 2600 years ago. Among other things, Ezekiel continues to teach us today. How do we play the long game successfully, even when we face hardship and are tempted to give up?

This sermon explores Ezekiel 4 and 37:1-14. It’s easier to play the long game when you know you are going to win.
