Suffering

Alzheimer's Caregiving - Caring for a person with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia can be emotionally, physically, and spiritually exhausting. Caregiving can create a "perfect storm" for weakening one's faith—or, paradoxically, for strengthening it. These devotionals encourage care providers to lean on God and approach the difficulties of caregiving from an empowered, Christ-focused perspective.

UNPACK This...Finding Purpose in Our Suffering

Home should be a protected place where we can go as we are.  The ache for home lives in all of us.  The theme of these guided audio meditations is about being protected and at peace with God. With God we are protected from judgment, guarded against the fear of condemnation, and shielded from criticism.  With God, we live with the assurance of forgiveness and God’s divine restoration and renewal.

The Protection of God

Joy is the constant companion of the woman who trusts in the Lord. And while you can find it in friends, family, and circumstances, unfailing, persistent joy will only ever overflow from your relationship with Jesus. Just ask Job, the man from Uz who clung to God’s goodness while all his worldly joys were stripped away. But how is it possible to hold onto such joy in times of sorrow? In this study by Lisa Harper, discover the redemptive side to Job’s story of suffering. Learn to use pain to strengthen your faith, point others to the gospel, and remember God’s providence will never take you to a place where His grace will not sustain you.
