Many people today are struggling with their own brokenness, always the result of sin- theirs or someone else's. "The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but a wounded spirit, who can bear?" What hope does Jesus hold out to the broken? Much in every way!

Many people are lonely today, not because they want to be alone, but because circumstances outside their control have dictated it. Will we be like God to them, and make a home for the lonely?

We have many things from this last year to celebrate, and so much to look forward to in the remainder of 2021 and beyond. We will be discussing the makings of procedural, practical, and spiritual progress together, and celebrating God's great work here at LBC!
