Currently, the world is facing a global pandemic—the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). In the midst of the panic, fear, and frustrations there are many different responses. One common phrase used by many is the statement, "These are 'uncertain' times." However, for the Christian—the genuine believer in Christ—nothing is uncertain. In this episode, Kenny makes clear that the believer never has anything to worry about. No matter what we face, even if we die due to a virus, we are in the hands of Christ! Kenny closes the episodes with a great quote from Francis J. Grimké who was a pastor during the Spanish Flu of 1918: "While the plague was raging, what a comfort it was to feel that we were in the hands of a loving Father, whether we were smitten with the epidemic or not, we knew it would be well with us, that there was no reason to be alarmed."

Overview: "O God, we don't know what to do, but our eyes are on you." (2 Chronicles 20:12).During the coronavirus outbreak, there has been panic, fear, and disruption to our lives, both individually and corporately as churches. But praise God, we're not the only Christians who have had to weather this kind of storm. On Nov. 3, 1918, Francis J. Grimké, pastor of 15th Street Presbyterian Church in Washington D.C., preached a sermon to his church, which reopened after public gatherings were banned amid the epidemic of influenza—an epidemic in which 3,000 D.C. residents lost their lives. Grimké gave 8 remarks to his congregation, and answered questions such as:What is the meaning of this epidemic? What were God's purposes in it?What does it teach us about race prejudice?What do we learn about the value of church and of faith in Jesus Christ?Come and be comforted by brother Grimké's words as he preaches to us still today.Links & Show Notes:Grimke's Sermon (for phone)Grimke's Sermon (for print)How DC Churches Responded When the Government Banned Public Gatherings During the Spanish Flu of 1918 (9Marks)Spurgeon and the Cholera Outbreak of 1854 (The Spurgeon Center)
