The Gift of Desperation with Kera Freeman


Listen Later

Spoiler alert: Kera was married to the same man twice.  And that’s not the half of the story God is writing in her life!

 

In this episode, Kera shares the story of how God gave her the gifts of desperation and community, to call her to Himself.  It’s one that shows us the power of creating community that’s centered in God’s word, of His redeeming power when all hope seems lost, and of the joy that comes through hardship, when He restores more than we could imagine.

 

Kera reminds us how powerful it can be when we invite someone into our homes and lives, and invite them to know God through His word.  Listen to this one if you need to remember that He can work miracles when we just take a walk down the block!

 

SCRIPTURES MENTIONED:

 “I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!” - Psalm 34:4-8

 

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” - 2 Corinthians 12:9
