Everyone loves roses. But what would happen if every time you saw any imperfection, you lopped off the entire stem? There’d be no bush left! Yet, that’s how some folks deal with difficult relationships. On today’s Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez offers five better ways to respond when we’ve been hurt.
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.
