Summary

I’ve been a little quiet lately. I guess that’s what happens when those big beautiful and messy life moments come. If you are in one of those moments right now, I want you to know you are not alone.

If you listened to last week’s podcast interview with Jennie Allen, she shared how she stays dependent upon God inside a rapidly growing ministry that the world would probably call “success”. (Because we all know how tempting it can be to take too much credit for ourselves and start calling the shots on something God called us to and started Himself. If He started something, He plans to finish it. )“Stay connected to suffering.”

“Stay connected to suffering.”

Those words are so true.

If you feel like you are in suffering right now, I am certain that today's podcast message, on this Good Friday, is timely and for you. Take a listen.

0:57.0	So I wanted to share this podcast today. It's actually a Facebook live because I did go Facebook live
1:05.2	Just recently kind of broke my my silence for a while. You know you just sometimes you just go okay I need to it's I

1:57.4	perseverance character and character hope. So this podcast I'm just sharing with you the Facebook Live when I kind of went on and the question was that God asked me as Lisa, would you rather, do you ever play that game? Would you rather, would you rather spend a summer in the mountains or a summer at the sea?
2:17.5	You know, the would you rather?
