As Jesus was beginning His ministry there was a man who was paralyzed. He had no way to get to Jesus, he was helpless and hopeless. Yet, this man’s friends were unwilling to give up on him. They took their paralyzed friend to Jesus and instead of being stopped by the crowd and the religious leaders they did whatever it took for their friend to see Jesus. By cutting a hole in the roof they lowered their friend down to be healed and encounter Christ. Are we willing to go to the same great lengths for those who are helpless and hopeless? Are you willing to do whatever it takes for people to meet with Jesus?

Life has been…different, hard, and in some ways we’re all longing to just go back to normal. The truth is, everyone is grieving the loss of something--or someone--right now. Most of us tend to ignore grief, pretending like it’s not there, just hoping it will fade over time. After all, time heals all wounds, right? But what if, the way to mending our broken hearts is by walking through our grief, not by sidestepping around it?
Tune in as we define grief, seek to gain a biblical perspective on grieving, and together develop a framework for the pursuit of healing and hope.
