Preaching Goes Viral

Church, "We've" Been Here Before

Silver lining: Blessed, grateful, or upbeat about the pandemic

R1: Main claim or thesis (supported by much of the sermon or primary source)

Prayer & faith saves from virus - or not

And that leads to my final point, which is so obvious we often miss it: the Bible is historical book.  God reveals himself through the course of a historical narrative, telling the story of God’s plan rooted in history to redeem and restore his fallen creation through Jesus Christ.  Even before you pick out books that share accounts of history, read your Bible. It will not only show you history, but it will show you the character and nature of the One who is sovereignly reigning over history.  Then it will prescribe how we can join in on the story, and how we too, like the accounts mentioned, will be literally written into history one day. Be encouraged church.  God is on the throne, He will receive the glory, and he is inviting us to play a part.  Play it well.
