Description
When was the last time you felt like all the pressure and pain in your life was pushing you toward a breaking point? Maybe you're struggling with an illness. A regret you can't let go of. A marriage that is toast. Loneliness, emptiness, loss. In all of it, we ache. But instead of breaking down, what if we chose another way--the way Jesus makes possible--and allowed ourselves to break open?
Pastor Jacob Armstrong shows us why the most common ways we try to avoid our pain actually steal life, not give it. Then he walks us through seven ways Jesus modeled how to live with expectancy and joy, even in the face of disappointment. In Breaking Open, you will
- See how you can leave behind your frenzied pace and settle into a more spacious life;
- Enjoy the freedom of living vulnerably instead of pretending to have it all together; and
- Discover how your greatest heartaches can open you up to even greater joy.
Breaking Open invites you to name the ache you feel so you can break it wide open and let Jesus heal you. Because God never intends for us to stay broken. He wants us to rise with power, with hope, with purpose--to a new way of living.
