We start our series called “Matriarchs of Christ.” Each week we look at a different woman that is listed in the genealogy of Jesus from Matthew’s Gospel. Our message today is “Tamar.” We reach back today into Genesis for the story of a woman that was wronged and teaches us about rushing to judgement. We hear about faith from unexpected places in unexpected ways.
Our scripture readings come from Genesis 38:11-19, 24-30; Romans 2:1-3; and Matthew 7:1-5.
Our new series is Women in Jesus’ Genealogy. This series looks at the 5 women mentioned in the first chapter of Matthew. Up first is “Tamar” and her quest for justice with Judah. Tamar seems an unlikely character to highlight. So why is she mentioned? Join us as we explore their faith journey and ours!
Our scripture reading comes from Genesis 38:11-19, 24-30.
