Shift Happens Week 2

from The Gathering · host Rev. Matt Miofsky

Today we are continuing our series Shift Happens: When Life Doesn’t Go as Planned. We are talking about reasons that our plans get upended and how we move forward when that happens. Each week, I am talking about a different reason our plans get messed up. We are looking at a different character of the Bible, and how they dealt with failed plans. As we explore their stories, we will learn strategies for how we can deal faithfully with those same situations in our own life.Sometimes shift happens because of choices and decisions that we make. So today we are going to talk about a character who had his life planned out from the time he was a kid. He had gifts, talent, opportunity, and a strong call on his life. He had a plan. But things did not turn out as he imagined, and it was due to his own choices.
