Mark Black Adult Minister

Hosea - The prophet that shows God's compassion and mercy. Imagine having a been told by God to marry a harlot. Even then, she will not love you and she continues in her adultery. God then says take her back. This is how much I love Israel. But the nation of Israel would not turn back to God. It breaks God's heart when we sin against Him and we will face the consequences of our actions. As the song goes Oh how He loves you and me........ This lesson is taken from Gene Taylor's lesson series entitled Prophecy and Prophets. Join Mark and Carol as they discuss this magnificent book. Also listen to the sermons Mark gave on Hosea while he was ministering at Beechwood Christian Church in Feb and March 2015.  Thank you for listening and Until We Meet Again may God be with you.
