The little book of Habakkuk tells us how to handle evil times, especially evil times in a culture.In this passage, God is saying to Habakkuk something about the evil Babylonian Empire that is rising up and wreaking havoc everywhere. God shows the rottenness at the heart of the culture and shows what is wrong in that culture. As God deconstructs what's wrong with the Babylonian culture, he actually gives us two principles for facing evil times wherever we are: 1) with your head, you need to understand the source of the evil that's surrounding you, and 2) with your heart, you need a consolation to help you face the evil.This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 17, 2009.
