New Series on Elijah begins Sept. 12

Thursday, August 26, 2010 | Garrick Conner

No one can deny that Elijah was one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament. When he spoke, the people listened. His words had impact. Boldness and courage were in the fiber of this man as he was confronted with opposition fom King Ahab and Queen Jezebel. This prophet appeared suddenly and then almost as strangely disappeared into the sky. His life and ministry made an unforgettable mark on the people and culture of his day.

Can the life and times of this prophet speak to us today? Even though he lived long ago there is so much we can take away from Elijah's life that will leave us the better. As we inspect the life and times of this ancient prophet, be ready to learn lessons about godliness, courage, prayer, and even something about God's refuge when you hurt.
