The God in Charge of History

About this sermon

The story of our earthly pilgrimage is not a straight line—yet when our lives twist and turn and we face unanswered questions, hardship, and sorrow, there is hope for all who trust in Christ. Beginning with the transition from the end of Genesis to the opening of Exodus, Alistair Begg reminds us that God’s providence underpins everything, as He is sovereign over all things, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. What was true for the Israelites is true for us today: We can trust that the unseen controller of history is working out His purposes in His way, making everything beautiful in His time.
