Zoos are unnatural places for the animals housed there. They are closely confined and regulated in a hectic, chaotic, confusing, and busy environment. Often, life feels the same. We feel lost, overwhelmed, and trapped in the flow of everyday life. God provides us with a guide to help navigate the zoo life, His Word. In this message series we will look at God’s creations for valuable lessons which, along with His Word, can help us live out His purpose for us through this crazy zoo-like life. This week, Pastor Leo introduces an animal with remarkable endurance, providing resilience to the harsh environment of its native home. Join us on this epic adventure as God’s creations visit to help pastor demonstrate how God designed us with strength to press on through the zoo of life.
