At the beginning of the year we revealed our year text for 2026: "Wherever the river flows, it will bring life". Now Chris puts this verse in its original context. The Israelites were a divided kingdom (sound familiar?) who had abandoned God (sound familiar?) to worship other idols (you get the idea), and as a result had been handed over to the Babylonians. Ezekiel, writing in the midst of this exile, was shown a vision of the water flowing from the temple, a symbol of the restoration of Jerusalem and the coming of God's Spirit. A sign of hope that all is not lost!
