May 8th – Tough Love – Hebrews 12:7-13
Making a choice when we seem to have no choice doesn’t make a lot of sense, but that is what we talk about Sunday. How are we going to survive these hardships, let alone win over them. We’re going to explore these themes Sunday Our passage winds up talking about overcoming feeble hands, weak knees and treacherous paths that we walk. We will be challenged to not just to grin and bear it, but to fix it. It’s an intriguing theme that doesn’t hover in the clouds, it hits us right where we live. Take a few moments and read this important passage. Start from verse 1 and get your heart ready for Sunday.
