About this episode

The episode discusses the struggle against negativity and the importance of focusing on God's promises rather than worldly hardships.

In our current day and age, we are surrounded by negativity. Everywhere we go, we feel the weight of complaining and dissatisfaction. We are all constantly striving for more money, more likes on social media, more "perfection" in our lives, yet it only leads us to feeling more empty than before. As we look at the Israelite's journey through the wilderness, we see that they went through many of the same struggles, focusing on their current hardships instead of the Promises of God. Let us see how God is calling us to turn our hearts from our worldly struggles to the eternal treasures that He has promised. By Shelby Crosswhite
