## Resource

Jeremiah 29:11 is probably the most misused verse in modern Christianity. We have made it a personal promise about a pleasant future, even though Jeremiah wrote it as a rebuke of false prophets who were promising personal pleasant futures. The real verse is not smaller than the coffee mug version. It is far larger. It reveals a God whose covenant faithfulness endures even when His people break faith, and who does formative work in the exile that could not occur anywhere else. This week we recover the context of Jeremiah 29 and discover that the exile is not a season to survive on the way to somewhere better. It is where God is forming us into the people we could not have become anywhere else.
