Dr. John Bergsma draws a connection between the Babylonian Exile and our current dilemma in exile away from the sacraments during Coronavirus Quarantine. He explains how the message in Isaiah 40, which was intended for God’s people in exile, is still relevant, fruitful, and indispensable for us today, especially as we pray and hope for a return to the sacraments.

After 39 chapters of narrative, the Book of Isaiah makes a dramatic shift: it becomes a book of poetry. But it makes another, perhaps more radical change: it skips ahead about 150 years into the future. In that future, the Israelites were plagued with uncertainty and filled with questions only God--or his prophet--could answer. So Yahweh spoke through Isaiah. In this video John N. Oswalt explains this passage from the book of Isaiah. LEARN MORE: https://zondervanacademic.com/blog/isaiah-40-1

When John the Baptist was asked who he was, he chose words from Isaiah 40 to describe himself and his purpose. He came to prepare a way for the Messiah... SONG LYRICS In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; Make straight a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted, every mountain made low; And the glory of the Lord will be shown, And the glory of the Lord be made known. All men are grass and their glory like flowers of the field; The grass fades, flowers fall in the breath of the Lord. Flowers fade and disappear like tracks in the sand, But the word of our God will stand, The word of our God will stand. Lift your voice on the mountain say, 'Here is your God!' Raise a shout,...

The end of the world has been a main subject in countless stories and even religions. But is the end really near? Fr. John Anthony Boughton, CFR, has some thought-provoking answers. Karol Wojtyla, before becoming Pope John Paul II said in 1979: “We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of the American society or wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-church, of the gospel versus the anti-gospel. This confrontation lies within the plans of divine providence. It is a trial which the whole Church, and the...
