Scripture tells us to guard our hearts, but if your heart is hurting, how do you heal it? Whether you're experiencing jealousy, injustice, loneliness or rejection, your brokenness isn't too much for Jesus to mend. In this 3-part plan, you'll find encouragement and hope as you experience God's healing.

Do you find yourself swerving around potholes as you drive down the road? If we're honest, we typically prefer the smoothest ride possible, opting for comfort at every turn, free of tolls & road rage. In life, most people crave a bump-free journey, too. Much to humanity's dismay, Jesus issued the disappointing news in John 16, verse 33: “Here on earth you will have many trials & sorrows.” Why didn’t He tell His faithful followers that He was removing heartache & tragedy from this earth? Let's talk about life's unwelcomed detours & how we can navigate them with the Truth of God's Word.
