Unwanted Fraternity

Religion EN ↓ 100 episodes

A coed fraternity of broken people who understand one another simply because of our circumstances. If you are unquestionably broken, you are not alone. This won’t take the pain away, but it may help to know there are hosts of people and God Himself who understand what you’re feeling. One day death will be swallowed up where there is no more. Until then, Jesus knows your pain and wants to walk with you in it - and so do we. Welcome to the Unwanted Fraternity.
