Youth Groups, Jan. 5

God is in the business of restoration.  However, that restoration is reserved for the humble.  The prideful, however, are resisted by God.  This Sunday we'll look at a fascinating book: Obadiah.  It's super short, but it's packed with some powerful truth.  The nation of Edom (Esau's descendants) stood by when Israel was conquered, and they even celebrated the nation's downfall.  God pronounces judgment on Edom while declaring restoration for Israel.

He restores us, too.  What a great topic for the new beginnings that come this time of year!  As you begin the new year, take some time for family discussion about God's restoration.
