Saying No To God

January 9 - January 30, 2022

Every one of us has said no to God at one point or another. And once we say no to God, yes tends to come a whole lot easier in all the wrong places. Before you know it, you find yourself deep down a path you never intended to travel.

If you’ve ever had a moment where you woke up, looked around, and wondered —How did I get here? — you’re not alone. Saying no to God may not seem like a big deal in the moment, but it can affect you in ways you’d never expect. The good news is it’s never too late to say yes.

Week 2: When God Brings the Storm

God is relentless in His pursuit of us. In His grace, He will sometimes send storms, to show us who we really are, and how much we desperately need Him.

Week 3: When We Hit Rock Bottom

God will often allow us to hit rock bottom because he cares more about changing our heart than our circumstances, but this temporary suffering is always worth it.

Even after we have renewed our relationship with God, we are still in a process of heart work that He has designed to get us to care about the things that He cares about.
