Belief & Loss

James Granger

John 11:1-45

Grief and Loss are disruptive and inevitable aspects of this life. Whether you’ve experienced it firsthand, walked alongside someone as they experienced loss, or have yet to face it in your life, loss can call our beliefs into question. How do you let the Gospel inform your response to loss? Pastor James Granger challenges us to anchor our beliefs in the truth and wisdom of God’s Word when we experience loss.

John 11:1-45
