When tragedy, crisis, and pain hit your life, how do you respond? How do you cope? And how do you move forward? Well in the words of our guest today, "Sometimes the most beautiful stories are written right in the middle of the mess.” Joining us is author and speaker, Michele Cushatt and together, we're going to explore navigating through crisis while holding firmly onto hope. In this episode, you'll discover... Hopelessness is a case of misplaced trust and failed expectations. If we desire peace in the midst of our chaos, we must change what we see. How to develop long-lasting trust in life. Fear is a focus on an uncontrollable variable in life. Counteracting war requires a change of perspective. Pain is not an indication of the abandonment of God, nor will it last forever. The basis of our identity has nothing to do with us and everything upon God.
