Life can often feel like being a fig tree in a vineyard – out of place, struggling to thrive. This week's sermon tackles the tough realities of feeling stuck, whether it's because of financial hardship, societal shifts, or systemic injustice. We look at Jesus's parable of the fig tree and discover that even when we feel forgotten, God is present, working in our lives. It's a call to recognize the systems that hurt us, to find our voice, and to participate in God's work of cultivating a world where everyone has room to grow. Listen for a message that will inspire you to dig deeper, fight for change, and find hope in the midst of struggle.
