God's care is our Comfort in Fear and Tragedy
Yesterday, Alasdair Groves, assistant faculty at CCEF, preached a sermon on Exodus 16. In that passage, the Israelites are wandering in the desert and question God about their lack of food. They fear for their survival and are upset. Likewise, after the shootings in Newtown Connecticut, many of us are fearful and upset. We hope you will be blessed as Alasdair draws on this passage to point us to the goodness of God who continually cares for us. As we cast our anxieties on him, we are more able to trust him for the future and be a people of joy in the midst of a dark world.

"Do You Think You Might Be Angry At God?"
Life in a fallen world is painful and broken. As Christians endure hardship and suffering, it is common to feel angry at God in our hearts. Our job as counselors is to help people face the reality of the anger they feel, express it, and repent of it so they can move forward. Listen as Alasdair Groves and Cecelia Bernhardt discuss how to come alongside and help those who struggle in this way.
