Finding God Sufficient in the Cave - Psalm 142:1-7 | June 24, 2026

Welcome to One Single Story! Pastor Stephen Mizell and Pastor Jay Rivenbark are joined by Pastor Alyssa Bream for a conversation centered on Psalm 142, David's raw, unfiltered prayer written from a literal cave while fleeing Saul. Together, they explore what it looks like to cry out to God in your most isolated moments — and what it means to find Him sufficient there. Scripture Focus: Psalm 142:1-7 — Written when David was hiding in a cave, this psalm captures the honest cry of someone overwhelmed, yet still turning to the only One who knows the way forward. In This Episode: The difference between a biblical lament and toxic grumbling — and why one moves us toward God while the other keeps us stuck Navigating caves that are self-imposed versus those outside our control How leaders can face the unique loneliness of ministry without slipping into bitterness and burnout Why Elijah's choice to abandon his support system is a warning for all of us Key Quote: "When you lose your platform and find yourself in a cave, you discover the platform was only temporary. The rock is eternal." One Single Story drops every weekday, walking through the One Year Bible with honest conversation and pastoral insight.
