We’ve all been there. The pressure of difficulty, pain, and hard seasons in our lives. We cannot pretend that

there is not a side of pressure that is not just plain hard. Loss, betrayal, abandonment, abuse, death, divorce,

sickness, loneliness, fear, confusion, anxiety, stress—the list of hard things is long and painful, and a place

where most of prefer to spend as little time as possible. Yet God is creating something in our lives.

THE BIG IDEA: When we are under great pressure, God gives us His great power.
