Ever feel like your life hasn’t turned out the way you hoped?This message is for anyone living under the weight of unmet expectations. Pastor Ben walks through the pain of disappointment when marriage, parenting, health, or faith just doesn’t pan out, and how it slowly chips away at our resolve. Whether you’ve been let down like Samuel or feel like the disappointment yourself, like David, there’s a way forward that doesn’t end in compromise or giving up. This isn’t about pretending you’re okay, it’s about resilience, redemption, and the raw grace of Jesus.When Samuel was grieving and David was dismissed as a nobody, God wasn’t done. He saw their hearts, and that’s still what He sees today. The same God who anointed the runt of the litter to be king and loved a train wreck like David wants to meet you in your mess. Whether you’ve blown it or been broken, you’re not disqualified. You're a perfect setup for grace. Keep showing up. Don’t quit now.
