Finding Joy in the Lord in Your Shadow
of Grief

New video with pastor Jonathan Pitts of Church of the City in Franklin, Tenn! He talks to us about finding the sources of his joy in the Lord. Pitts is also the author of the book, “My Wynter Season, ” which chronicles his life’s journey after suddenly losing his wife of 15 years. Amidst his grief, he found himself surrounded by God’s extravagant love and came to truly understand Christ’s life-giving promise that death is not the end.

Live It Challenge: Exploring Easter 2022

It is so important that we understand Easter from a Christian worldview and not become too distracted by the festivities of it all. To enjoy Easter purely for the candy and activities would be like going to a birthday party for the cake and neglecting who the cake is really for. Easter activities can bring about happiness, closeness with family, and love, but without an acknowledgement of Christ, His sacrifice on the cross, and His resurrection, we can miss the core of our celebration.
