If we know Jesus then we're loved just as we are. But why is it so difficult to live in this accepted state? Pastor Mike Fabarez challenges us to check our motives. Are we looking for ways to lift others up? Or are we seeking opportunities to elevate ourselves, instead?
In our broken world, suffering is not a matter of if, but when. The weight of life's burdens, the turmoil of our culture and the stress of finances may have you longing for a hiding place for some glimmer of relief. Find genuine peace amidst difficult trials and learn to rejoice instead of despair. The gospel can sustain believers, even in the darkest times.
