Sermon | "The Weight of Hope Deferred" | March 8

God’s people groan under the weight of suffering, injustice, and delayed deliverance. Habakkuk and Lamentations capture the cry of a wounded nation: “How long, O Lord?” Their grief reveals a burden deeper than circumstance—the ache of hopes deferred and prayers seemingly unheard. Yet God promises that the one who brings judgment will in turn be judged. Babylon will fall. Oppression will end. And this reversal anticipates Christ, who will take judgment into Himself and bring hope out of ruins.
