Unmet Expectations & Disappointment

from Make It Simple · host MPM

This week, Matt and Rachel talk about disappointment and unmet expectations in life. Using a framework for grieving loss, they wonder if learning to deal with disappointments, both trivial and profound, is key to emotional health. They talk about the power of naming the disappointment and the need if left unmet, and how to reach an adjusted, hopeful expectation for the future—to avoid getting stuck in cynicism or despair.Support the showFor more information on Make It Simple Ministries, head to https://makeitsimple.org/To support Make It Simple, head here: Support the showBuy your copy of Junk Drawer Jesus wherever books are sold.
