Holy Ground: A City of Judah

In this second message of our Holy Ground series, we come to an unnamed city in the hill country of Judah, where Mary’s cousin lived. But I hope you realize that the real emphasis shouldn’t be on holy places where God once moved, but holy people in whom God now dwells. Mary was one of them. She is our sister in Christ and a great example to us. Let’s notice five attributes.

I. She Was Hopeful (vv. 39-45)

II. She Was Worshipful (vv. 46-55)

III. She Was Scriptural (vv. 46-49)

IV. She Was Needful (v. 47)

V. She Was Helpful (v. 56)
