Pit, Purpose + Redemption: When I think about the valleys or the pits in my own life and I think, will they ever end? God will bring his hand of reprieve for a time and its beautiful and I am reminded and even more convinced of His goodness. But why is it that I seem to fall back into these pitiful places time and time again?
The purpose of this episode is to shed light on God's redemptive goodness and the operational power of grace to pull you up and out of the difficult places and seasons that life so often deals. In this episode, we will discover the PURPOSE of the pit as spiritual + formational.
Biblically, the pit is always a place where God
-Reorients someone
-Reveals something
-Refines something
-Rebuilds someone
-Reframes identity
-Resets direction-Removes false dependencies
-Roots someone deeper
At the end of the day, God is forming something in each of us that comfort never could. And when you are in the dark, God is forming you.
The pit is a place—not a verdict. The pit is not a label, an identity , a punishment, areport card a spiritual diagnosis, or a sign of immaturity or evidence of weakness. Its simply the place where humanity meets God;s mercy. And that’s always messy. Always raw. Always holy.
Thanks for being here.
