In part 4 of the Hope for the Weary series, Kelly Hall explains how we can embrace God-possibilities in the weariness of the wilderness. We'll hear some never-before-shared powerful stories of God's faithfulness and rehearse a familiar story in the Bible where we see God being jaw-dropping awesome! 

Key Takeaways:

The E of HOPE: Embrace God's possible in our impossible.

God's Possible is actually quite possible, right smack dab in the middle of our impossible.

In the overwhelm of life, we don't have to be afraid because God knows our names.

Lord, our impossible stories are no match for Your power.

He is doing something in our day we wouldn't believe if we were told!
