Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack Sunday's sermon. This week we explore the richness of the word "covenant", and the significance of "cutting a covenant", how the Old covenant is more gracious than we assume, and that perhaps the New covenant is more demanding than we realise.  To find out more about The Centre visit; www.thecentredural.org.au/church/ We meet at 10am every Sund...

31 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah. 32 It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them," declares the Lord. 33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel...

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11) The prophet Jeremiah writes these words to a nation in the middle of exile.

In Jeremiah's time Babylon was an impenetrable city, an all-powerful empire which seemed indestructible. Yet God promised this evil empire would be overthrown and justice would prevail. Is there an issue or situation that feels too big for God to handle? Mitch reminds us that even the great city of Babylon was no match for the power and justice of God. To find out more about The Centre visit; www....

Jeremiah's purchase of land on the eve of the Babylonian invasion was not a "wise investment" by human standards. But the symbol of hope it represented was a powerful reminder of God's promise for restoration in the midst of suffering. What's your symbol of hope that keeps you focused on God's promise to restore all things? To find out more about The Centre visit; www.thecentredural.org.au/church/...
