We continue our Unraveled series and explore a text from the prophet Jeremiah. Writing to the Israelites who are living in exile, Jeremiah encourages them to build houses, plant gardens, and seek the welfare of the place where they living--a surprising message to people captive in a foreign land. Jeremiah speaks out of a context of hope, so how do we hear this message for us as we live in the lands of pandemic, systemic injustice, or personal troubles? How are we called to build, plant, and seek the welfare of one another?
