How to Go Through Pain & Suffering

For 2020, we're spending the entire year exploring the Bible, its story, and significance for us as followers of Jesus. Here is our working definition of the Bible: “The Bible is a library of writings that are both divine and human, that together tell a unified story, which leads us to Jesus.”

This past Sunday we started a new mini-series with the ‘Year of Biblical Literacy’ called ‘The School of Life.’ This week we were joined by our good friend, Mike Wilcox. Mike is a licensed Christian Therapist in Sonoma County and is a member of Refuge Christian Fellowship. For this first week into the series, he talked to us about ‘How to Go Through Pain & Suffering.’ Take a listen.

Like thousands of churches worldwide, this global pandemic has forced us to be creative in our response — both in terms of how we gather and how we serve our community. Though we believe the normative pattern established in Scripture for community anticipates embodied presence, there are certain times where that’s not possible. We find ourselves in such a time and are thankful to be able to leverage the digital landscape to remain faithful to plugging into community. This week’s Gathering came by way of a Zoom video call. We’d love for you to join us next week!
