LIFE.CHURCH
About this episode

No one wants to deal with problems, but you can’t avoid them. You might be waiting for God to step in and fix things, but what if He doesn’t? Does that mean He doesn’t care? Let’s talk about it.

If you're facing something difficult, you don’t have to carry it alone. If it’s on your mind, it’s on God’s heart. We want to pray with you and support you through whatever you’re facing. Share your prayer request: https://www.life.church/getprayer

ABOUT THIS MESSAGE
