Summary

Season 7: What We Learned from 2020  Some places are starting to get back to "normal". What is normal? Is that really where we as believers want to be? Normal in our world right now isn’t very good and isn’t healthy. Let’s do better than getting back to normal, let’s move forward to healthy. In whatever you’ve been through in 2020 there are significant lessons that God has for you to learn from and not just “return to normal”. Mark & Grace share the lessons they learned from Covid-19 and 2020 and how to move forward to healthy.
