What do we do when life starts to feel overwhelmingly difficult and we’re tempted to give up? In today’s episode, host Lauren Alessi invites us to dig deep and discover what it really means to be made for more. We’ll explore the story of the Miami Seaquarium, draw inspiration from Jeremiah 12:5, and reflect on how challenges in our daily lives aren’t meant to break us, but to build us up for the greater purpose God has in store. Together, we’ll learn how to reframe our struggles as training grounds, and find encouragement in knowing that God is preparing us for something bigger—even when life feels exhausting.

Join us as we pray and devote ourselves to trusting God’s process, embracing the challenges, and stepping boldly into the “more” for which we were created.
