Household Worship Guide on God's People - Or Not and The Word of the Lord from Hosea 1

This week we will consider God's People - Or Not and The Word of the Lord from Hosea 1. At Springs Reformed Church we distribute a weekly guide running from the Lord's Day to Saturday with Monday-Wednesday reviewing the sermons that were preached the Lord's Day at the start of the week and Thursday-Saturday previewing the sermons that will be preached the coming Lord's Day.

However, for the posts here I am linking to the guide from Thursday to Wednesday so that all are aimed at the Lord's Day as the peak of the 7-day rhythm as seen in the image above. The Lord's Day post includes links to the sermons.

Thursday Hosea 1:1, 2 Kings 17:6–13—The word of the LORD that came to Hosea
Friday Hosea 1:2-9—Abandoning the LORD
Saturday Hosea 1:10-2:1—They Will Be Called: Sons of the Living God
Lord’s Day
Monday Romans 9:18–26—My Beloved People, My Sons
Tuesday Hebrews 1:1-4—God’s Final Word
Wednesday (due to preparation for extra Friday and Saturday Communion Season sermons, we did not cover Hosea or cross references on Wednesday)

If you find it useful to use these in your household/family worship, consider asking your pastor to speak to me about him developing something similar in your congregation.

Worship Connected is a guide offered by Dr. Ed Blackwood, pastor of the Springs Reformed Church (RPCNA), to focus family worship around the sermons preached each Lord’s Day. For more information about how and why I developed this guide (and encourage other pastors to consider doing something similar) see here.
