When Your People Turn On You
Today we gather around God's Word to pray through, praise through, and preach through a piece of scripture so that we can practice faithful trust amid strained friendships.
God, help us recognize what moments of clarity reveal about our friendships and faith.
Thank God I'm Free
Why we sing it Gratitude for God's freedom helps us face strained relationships with renewed faith.
There's Nothing That Our God Can't Do
Just one word / You calm the storm that surrounds me Just one word / The darkness has to retreat
Why we sing it God's power gives us hope when conflict surrounds us and circumstances feel beyond our control.
Sovereign Over Us
Your plans are still to prosper / You have not forgotten us You're with us in the fire and the flood / You're faithful forever
Why we sing it God remains faithful and present through suffering, even when trusted friendships change.
Who Else (Live)
Why we sing it God alone remains worthy of our trust when relationships leave us uncertain.
