This message begins the Quest for Enlightenment in the popular Uprising series.

In this message, Erwin Raphael McManus shares that if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by life and can’t seem to find your way through, then you’ve known the need for enlightenment

.The Quest for Enlightenment begins with the need for wisdom. Wisdom is the ability to connect the dots, to foresee the future. Imagine if you had the ability today to make the choices that would create the future you long for?

Two people can go through the same trauma and have radically different experiences. One can emerge broken and fragile, while the other emerges stronger and more resilient. The key is perseverance founded in faithfulness, which is where wisdom begins.

Erwin shares that the journey of faithfulness is one you cannot take alone - it requires a community. We all fail, we all fall, we all stumble; but you need someone with you on the journey to help pick you up!
