Household Worship Guide on Sound the Alarm! and Before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord from Joel 2

This week we will consider Sound the Alarm! and Before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord from Joel 2. 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 Joel 2:1-11—Sound the Alarm!
Friday Joel 2:12-27—Return to the LORD
Saturday Joel 2:28-32—The Spirit Poured Out
Lord’s Day
Monday John 3:16-21, 31-36—Believe in the Son or continue in the wrath of God
Tuesday Luke 5:27–32—Calling sinners to repentance
Wednesday Acts 2:14-39—The promise is for you (and your children)

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 prepared by me, 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.
