Leviticus 25:19-21

Tearfund’s mission is to help communities around the world escape the very worst effects of poverty and disaster. How might this mission be tied to the Biblical concept of jubilee?

Conclude your journey through the BEMA Liturgy with Part D: Children of the Resurrection Liturgy Reading Plan. BEMA Liturgy is here to help you slow down, form groups around Scripture, and live out the life Jesus has called us to.

The towering figures who dominate the pages of 1 and 2 Kings are not the kings themselves, but the prophets, often called “men of God.” These messengers from God to the king and the people, with their faithful and often costly obedience, stand in stark contrast to the mostly bleak portrait of the monarchs of Judah and the unrelieved negative portrayal of the kings of Israel.
