Psalms 34:3

Because attendance typically surges on the Sunday that Christians celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection, Easter weekend represents one of the most rewarding — and challenging — times of the year for church leaders. We created this audio YouVersion Rest Plan to help church staff celebrate all that God did, rest from the work that went into preparing and executing, and reset for the ministry still to come.

Жизнь нелегка, и вместе с тяжелыми днями приходит множество негативных эмоций. Как правило, мы справляемся с ними, выплескивая, размышляя или прячась. Знаете ли вы, что многие псалмы - это молитвы, рожденные из этих сильных эмоций? В этом плане чтения мы исследуем честные молитвы без прикрас о страхе, боли, вине и сомнениях, встречающиеся в Псалтири, и научимся делиться этими чувствами с Господом.

Life is filled with unexpected journeys, both good and bad. While it’s often easy to see God in the good times, it can be challenging to hold onto hope in the midst of tragedy and impossibilities. Be empowered to believe in the One who does the impossible. When you expect a God encounter in your darkest hour, He will redeem what seems hopeless with supernatural answers!

We may not always see or feel it, but God is always with us... even when we're going through hard things. In this plan, Finding Hope Coordinator Amy LaRue writes from the heart about her own family's struggle with addiction and how God's joy broke through in their darkest times.
