Maybe you’re better at hiding your emotions than Shawna is. But even if you are, we leak. What’s weighing on our hearts finds its way into our relationships, our work, our days. Jesus not only knows what we’re going through, He is the way through it.

The Bible’s not a book of rules, or of heroes to emulate. It’s the story of a Young Prince who crosses all worlds to come and save us. It’s a story that shouts: “God’s not mad at you!” and how that’s even possible when he has every reason to be mad at us.

Our best intentions unfortunately don’t always lead to the best outcomes. Shawna opens up about the realities of all that distracts us from the truth that we’re loved more than we can possibly imagine. To live loved we need to be reminded as often as possible of who and whose we are.

If you’re feeling worn out, weak, burned out, poured out, if you feel like you’ve got nothing left to give, Perry can relate. And he points us to one of the Bible’s Mount Everest promises of God to give us strength.

When we sin we feel the weight of hurting God’s heart, and often the shame of it tells us that we did is who we are. What if, instead, that pain led us to gratitude for what God has done for us and reminded us that we’re not defined by our own mistakes but by what Jesus did for us on the cross?
