This week we will look at Elijah passing the mantle of prophet to Elisha. It is an iconic story of a mentor lifting up his successor. It is an odd story from the bible for something that happens every generation. We might recall from bible trivia or Sunday school that Elijah was taken up to heaven.
We might remember Elijah from our Lent prayer service. He was just done with this prophet business. God spoke with him and sent him to mentor Elisha so that the prophetic message of God would continue.
This week we will talk about passing the mantle. How we continue the message of the church. How we build and leave a legacy.
Join us this week as we look to the future and preservation of ministry in our day.
