Description
Whenever broken lives start mending; wherever someone is set free; when the barriers get lifted and the desperate hear good news, hope for new community is born.
Frightened people long for holding. Lonely people seek for friends. Those whose story was forgotten want a place they can be heard. Grieving persons pray that someday they may learn to laugh again.
In God’s kindness, mercy moves us toward the others saved by grace. What we need, their stories give us: what they need, our hands can bring.
“Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God” (1 John 4:7).

Find the circle you were meant for. Find the love that gives you hope.
And you will stay in grace. – Bill Knott

FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH (October 07, 2022): On every day, in every way, God knows what we’ve been doing. The Father sees each burst of pride, each run of lust, each carelessness that injures others. “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight” (Heb 4:13). But seeing all does not mean l... by Adventist Review Podcasts
