Publisher's Description
The times in which we live are often described as "unprecedented." The word might be overused, yet the last few years have seen exceptional healthcare challenges, loss of human life, economic disruption, and political turmoil. We are now in the second year of novel coronavirus and its global impact. Most people either know someone who died from the virus or have experienced its nefarious effects in other ways--illness, unemployment, school and border closures, shortages, confinement, addiction, fear, anxiety. Families were separated from loved ones who died alone in hospitals and nursing homes. We wait for a return to normal or a new normal and live with the lingering suspicion that life will never be the same. Where do we look for hope? As Christians, our ultimate hope is in God and his promises. Christians have dual citizenship, earthly and heavenly. On earth they want what most people want--security, satisfaction, and significance--and desire a better world. Christians also assert that this world order will pass away and every person will live somewhere forever. These messages from God's word seek to point Christians and non-Christians to Jesus Christ as the only one who provides genuine, eternal hope.

“In these times of ‘pandemic weariness,’ political upheaval, disinformation, and distrust, Stephen Davis offers us a much-needed book of nineteen sermons from a variety of texts which form a cohesive unit. Steve’s writing style is like his preaching: gospel centered, down-to-earth, a touch of humor, and easy to read. From the first chapter to the end, we are reminded in a compelling way of what Christ, who is our hope, has done for us.”
“Here is a book that will encourage and strengthen Christians even when dark nights of the soul come knocking. In God’s Unchanging Word in an Ever-Changing World, Steve points believers to the gospel as the sure narrative upon which they should build their lives. He beckons them to rejoice in God’s word, which is a firm foundation in a fickle world.”
