The Shack Part 3 - A Morning of Sorrows
We have all been hurt at some level, but what do we do when those hurts feel insurmountable or unforgivable? When they paralyze us or cause us to run from God and even blame Him. In this new series, we want to create an environment and opportunity for God to meet people where they are at in the midst of their pain. The healing processes outlined in Scripture are only effective when in relationship with God. Emotional healing doesn't take place by ignoring or pushing the pain away. It happens when we meet with God in the place of our pain and embrace it with Him. God wants to restore, heal, repair us - to bring us beyond a place of existence, but to that place of joy and fulfillment - where we can use our hurts to heal others.

An easy, care-free life may be appealing, but it's not reality. In fact, as in most areas of life, true spiritual progress often requires pain and paying a price. Discover from Nehemiah how God uses criticism, opposition, and pain to actually refine and strengthen you to fight for all that He's promised you.
