Remember the times you felt rejected and how that sting lingered? We all have those moments, but ever wondered how God might use those experiences to redirect your life ? We break down how to see rejection not as a setback, but as a stepping stone towards personal growth and transformation in your walk. In the final part of the episode, we tie together the themes of desperation, faith and acceptance. Using personal anecdotes and biblical references, we identify how moments of despair can guide us towards new opportunities and realizations. We discuss trusting in God's plan, even when it's difficult to comprehend. We also examine the potential pitfalls of bitterness and resentment and encourage the listener to embrace acceptance.

How To

You can't do God's work independent of God's spirit. In this episode I break down what it means to rely on God and not your own strength. Because we do have a part to play in what God has called us to do we can never forget we can’t do it without him.
