Dig Another Well

If you've ever felt like your spiritual well has run dry or that you're exausted by the same old conflicts and disappointments, this message is for you. You'll see how past hurts and offenses can clog up your relationship with God and with others... and how that can keep everyone around you thirsty for something better, too.

The good news is that you don't have to stay stuck. God invites you to move forward, not by fixing things yourself, but by choosing to dig again. To move forward by faith when where you are is comfortable as much as when it feels like everythign is an attack.

It's in the place of God's presence that you find peace. It's in that place of worship that God heals the wounds, cleans the muddy places, and gives you peace beyond anything you could ask.
