When I first started preaching, someone once told me to “Preach to broken hearts, because there’s one on every pew.”
Sometimes, I think we spend too much time focusing on the head and not enough on the heart. In the end, what Christians need to remember — despite everything else — is that God is near to them.
Everything else hinges on holding fast to that idea.

CloseMost Bible readers are familiar with the basic story of Hosea. God tells Hosea to marry a woman of harlotry (Gomer), which represents God's relationship with Israel. Just as Gomer was faithless towards Hosea, so was Israel faithless towards God. But what about Hosea's kids? The first chapter of Hosea says they have three kids -- each of which with names that describe the punishment of Israel. There is a lot we can learn from these three names, both what it meant for Israel, and what it can mean for us today.
