Ross King: Cultivating Thought Through Love, Lyric, and Insight

How does understanding that God isn't "safe", but good and sovereign, change how we face grief, depression, and unexpected life turns?In this special service featuring singer-songwriter Ross King, we explore the honest, raw realities of suffering, mental health, and faith. Following the sudden loss of his father and a long season of depression and anxiety, Ross shares personal stories and original songs that break down sanitized views of the Christian walk. Tracing C.S. Lewis's famous imagery of Aslan and the deep comfort of Psalm 23, Ross demonstrates how Jesus meets us directly in our dark seasons. Discover how Christ's own grief, anger, and distress show that you are in "good company" when facing life's heaviest trials, and why even in the midst of fear, God remains ultimate hope and deliverance.In this episode, we cover:The Reality of Suffering and Mental Health: An honest discussion about depression, counseling, and navigating unfulfilled expectations in life.God Is Not Safe, But He Is Good: Exploring C.S.
