Description

Why is going back to the basics of faith important? How can flaws become beautiful? And how does listening for Jesus's voice impact making decisions?

These questions and more are explored in Chapters 35-37 of The Door Before Joy, the story we are reading in season 3. It's a true story about the role uncertainty plays in the life of faith when stuck in the midst of transition and waiting. We explore FOUR STAGES of UNCERTAINTY that lead to spiritual awakening.

This story will resonate most with striving-achievers and mothers juggling work-life-family decisions as well as anyone feeling burnt out on religion and wondering what shape faith takes when life doesn't make sense.

This season falls into the category of story-telling, spiritual formation, HOPE and renewal.
