In this episode we are wrapping up a season on “growing through it", we believe this is an ongoing, lifelong practice of allowing God to teach us as we go through situations in life - maybe, the situations are not what we desired, or what we hoped for, or even what we expected, but when we trust God, we can be sure that He is at work and He has a GREATER plan than we do. Romans 5:3-5 that says  3...
