We anchor everything in 1 Timothy...

The Heartbreak.

Grief has a way of emptying your mind and stealing your next step, so what do you do when you’re driving home with news you never wanted to hear? We tell the true story Darlene Zschech shares from her book, Extravagant Worship: a devastating doctor’s visit, a brokenhearted ride home, and a quiet prompt from the Holy Spirit that felt almost unbearable, “Sing.” We walk through why that moment matters for anyone living through loss, anxiety, or a season that makes no sense. Worship isn’t ...
