Text:  I Kings 18:1 - 19:18

Sermon in a sentence:  Do not despair—He is still there!

Four elements of our descent into despair and our ascent to hope in Him —

I.     The past we grieve—Mt. Carmel—I Kings 18:1-46.

II.    The trauma we dread—Jezreel—I Kings 19:1-3a.

III.   The despair we cannot hold at bay—Beersheba—I Kings 19:3b-7. 

IV.  The voice we long to hear—Mt. Sinai—I Kings 19:8-18.
