"If we wait until hard things happen to form our theology about God, we will find ourselves with poor theology and a massive misrepresentation of His character." Today Emma Dotter is joined by friend Joey Tisdale to talk through hoping in the Lord even in the midst of hard times. He is in control and offers us a full life in Jesus!
