*A thought*:
Ancient Israel is seen by many as being haughty in times of peace, fearful in time of
trouble, downcast under the yoke of oppression, and unwilling to break with sin and idolatry until the last possible moment. Is this a description of many in today's Church? What do you think?
*Week #32 Memory Verse*:
