    December 12, 2023 Overcoming the Pain of Rejection (Part 2)

    There is no denying the sting of rejection. These painful moments can bring up questions about ourselves, others, and maybe even God.
    How can we begin to move forward into a place of healing and strength?
    We don’t have to ignore the pain, but we do get a chance to defy it. Instead of carrying that rejection with us, Jesus invites us to shake it off (see Matthew 10:14 NIV). We can be honest about the pain you have experienced, and, at the same time, learn to let it go, lift our heads, and keep moving.
    Tune in to this week’s episode of the Conversations podcast (a follow up to the last episode—so make sure to listen to that first if you missed it) as John and Lisa wrap up this important discussion and share practical, actionable takeaways.
