Bonus - Processing Pain to get to the Promise

from the wholehearted disciple · host Wendy Mann

This is my most-listened-to message, recorded back in 2016—just a week after a wonderful lady in our church, Zoe Joy, passed away suddenly from cancer.In it, I talk honestly about what it means to process pain in the presence of God and how to hold onto faith when life doesn’t make sense. It’s an invitation to walk with Him through the mystery, rather than around it.We explore how to:Be gut-level honest with God, bringing Him our raw emotion and unanswered questions.Thank and praise Him through the pain, even when our hearts are breaking.Lay down our right to understand and choose trust instead.I share from personal experience about navigating disappointment without losing hope, and how God can use seasons of sorrow to lead us into deeper intimacy and ultimately into His promises.If you’ve ever faced moments that challenge your view of God’s goodness, this message will help you find a way to stay anchored in love, even in the storm.(The ministry time is included in case you want to invite God to meet with you while I lead through the process)Website -⁠ ⁠⁠wendymannequip.com⁠⁠⁠Rooted -⁠ ⁠⁠wendymannequip.com/rooted⁠
