How to Rejoice, Even in the Ruins // Habakkuk 3:16-19 // S2-E6
In the midst of heartache, it can be difficult to imagine "what good could come of it." After receiving a terrifying vision about incoming attack, the prophet Habakkuk didn't allow terror to trump his trust in God. Instead, he rejoiced in the ruins—and we have much to learn from his faith. Tune in to this episode to unpack the final words of Habakkuk's prayer in Habakkuk 3:16-19 and uncover how to hold hope and sorrow at the same time, why praising God in difficult times can lead to deeper peace, and what it looks like to worship when you're afraid. Scripture Passages and Verses Referenced: Matthew 6; 2 Corinthians 4; Philippians 2; Philippians 4; Psalm 42; Psalm 43; Psalm 97. About Know God Deeply: This podcast is produced by Precept.

Is Justice Worth Waiting For? // Habakkuk 2:2-20 // S2-E4
How can a loving, holy God allow wickedness to flourish?

Evil would be dealt with, and justice would be done.
