Finding Hope and Healing in a Fallen World

The idea of home resonates deeply— a safe haven, surrounded by those who love you. Exile evokes displacement and estrangement. The story of humanity begins in Eden but swiftly results in banishment. Look around; the signs of displacement and discord are evident. The intentions of God have been hijacked, our perfect communion broken. All creation groans; yet there’s a way back. During exile, hope lingers — a promise unbroken.

The EXILE — a 5-Day Devotional

Sometimes God can seem so far away, especially in those times when you are going through a major struggle or conflict in your life. In such times, when it seems like God is silent and you have lost all hope, you can be assured He is there. He wants to meet you right there in the middle of your pain and darkness.
