Comparison w/ Jenn Schultz

You've heard "Comparison is the thief of joy!" but ending comparison is easier said than done. Comparison is a tool of our enemy used to deepen our suffering by isolating us from God and His Church and misplacing our identity. With the help of Jenn Schultz, author of "She's Not Your Enemy. Conquering Our Insecurities So We Can Build God's Kingdom Together," we will do a deep dive on the topic of comparison and the tools we have at our disposal to overcome this attack from the enemy.

Praying Through Suffering w/ Molly Wilcox

What do we do when our prayers don't seem to be answered? Is it okay to ask God to fulfill our desires? Does God care about our desires? What can we pray about?

With the help of Molly Wilcox, author of "How Much More? Finding Fulfillment in a Generous God," we will talk about God's desire to hear our requests, how to align our prayers with God's will, and what it means to pray against spiritual forces of evil.
