This episode deals with the all too familiar situation known as "No good deed goes unpunished". The prophet Jeremiah was faithful in delivering God's message of truth to His people, yet his earthly reward was hearing of his countrymen plotting to take his life! Jeremiah turned to God in despair and complained bitterly, to the point of asking for harsh judgement to come upon his enemies. Chad ruminates on this deeply emotional passage and offers compassionate words of hope for us all, based entirely upon the loving character of our God. Colin Heinrich sings a beautiful and peaceful lament...

We've all been wronged, sometimes by those closest to us, or those who we trust the most. So, how do we respond, especially when we know that we can't truthfully claim our own righteousness and demand God's wrath against those who have hurt us. Oftentimes we hold our feelings inside, keeping our thoughts to ourselves, which only makes things worse. In God's mercy, He has given us words to express in prayer, words found in Holy Scripture, that encapsulate our deepest pains and struggles. This passage from Jeremiah is another gem for the wounded. Chad meditates on this passage and points us to...

Lyrics to Shalom:
Shalom, shalom
Come in through my door
My heart is Your home
My Savior, my Lord
Shalom, shalom
I’m held in Your care
Peace in my soul
The covering I wear
My thirst is quenched
My hunger is sated
By the Savior who loves me
And patiently waited
In the time of trouble
In my time of grief
To flow down like water
A flood of relief
Down through my vineyards
Into my garden with kindness and love
Shalom, shalom
Come in through my door
My heart is Your home
My Savior, my Lord
Shalom, shalom
I’m held in Your care
Peace in my soul
The covering I wear
When darkness surrounds
And all understanding
is dimmed by fear
Storm clouds arise
Yet I see in Your eyes
That all is well, here
You are the peace
When You change all my plans
You are the peace
Who steadies my hands
Sending peace through my vineyards
Into my garden with kindness and love
