Awkward Joy (with Mary Jo Clark)

Sink deep into the arms of grace tonight. 

Do you ever get tired of reading the Old Testament because you’re pretty sure you know the story? God gives laws and his people break them, over and over again. But what if the story was about more than that? What if the OT is about more than that. Well, in this study on Discover the Word, Dr. Michelle Knight joins the group to take a closer look at the “poster book” for disobedience–the book of Judges. Explore with the group how The background of Judges is not just about obedience, but about God revealing himself. If we make this story about doing good or doing badly, we miss the fact that God was seeking his people out (like he does us), time and time again.

Enter God’s protective peace and surrender your storms to Him with this extended episode.

Find wholeness in the presence of your heavenly Father tonight. 

Let strength and courage rise as you draw near to the ever-present Shepherd of Psalm 23.

Let God be your guide as you journey with Him through Psalm 23.

End your day letting go, to let God in. 

Find stillness, peace and a moment of calm in God’s embrace as you mediate on Psalm 46.

Dwell in a place of awe and worship this evening as you simply come and know your God.
