We have seen God move in powerful, tangible ways throughout this series. We've seen people be healed, marriages be restored and life changing dedications to follow Jesus. But there's still the age old question, why would a good God allow suffering?

Over the past several weeks we've been discussing how God answers our prayers for healing, how to experience that healing and how to deal with some types of illness we may be experiencing. One type of healing that many of us may need is healing from relational hurt and damage. Maybe you've had someone in your life that you didn't expect to hurt you the way they have. Jesus cares about that hurt as well. Join us this week as we learn how Jesus heals relational wounds from our lead pastor, Pastor Matt Brown.Time stamps: 00:00 - Welcome00:31 - Start: How does Jesus heal my relational wounds.09:01 - Jesus offers me a different kind of drink.15:34 - Jesus listens to my concerns and questions.20:11 - Jesus gives me hope, even when I have been hurt so many times.29:35 - Jesus teaches me how to have a real relationship with God.38:54 - Jesus invites me to trust Him.Do you have questions, need prayer or want to get connected?

Throughout the pandemic our country saw mental health issues skyrocket. Adults and children alike struggled and worried about what the future might hold for them. Traditionally, the church has not cared for mental illness well, blaming it on lack of faith and prayer. However, even though society has advanced to create the most care for mental illness, we still see the problem growing every day.

We saw an interesting trend online when Joe Rogan began sharing his experiences using DMT, using psychedelics to access the spiritual, the spiritual world, or just something that is beyond our physical and mental realm.While many stories can be shared of good experiences, the bad experiences aren't nearly talked about as often. What if using these drugs has a negative side affect? What if the spiritual world isn't as clean and welcoming as some celebrities make it seem?Check out our newest episode of Real Spirituality: Using Psychedelics to Access the Spiritual as Pastor Adam Atchinson sits down with our good friend Tyler Schaefer to discuss psychedelics and their role in spirituality.

When we ask for healing, God responds with either: yes, no or wait. The first two can be easy—we got our answer! But "wait" can be the hardest one. Sometimes a "wait" is an invitation to a deeper relationship with Christ. Sometimes a "wait" is for situations outside of our control. Regardless of the circumstances, a "wait" answer to our prayer shows that God has a plan bigger than us.
