Pain: How to Heal the Hurt
If you had an issue with your heart, you would be suspicious if a doctor gave you medicine for gout. In the same way, to address emotional pain, we need to seek wise counsel — someone who will listen and properly diagnose the problem.
Pastor Levi pulls from the Proverbs, the God-HELP! Book of the Bible, to address how to heal the hurt.
This podcast episode is from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, May 16, 2021.
From Series: "God-HELP!"
Bookshelves are lined with self-help resources, but these guides have little to sell us other than ourselves. And reading books by Christian authors can be like biting into a pizza roll too quickly. We can lose the ability to taste differences between what is self-help and God-dependence. We swallow both indiscriminately and wonder why our stomachs hurt. In this series, we'll look at the Proverbs, God’s help book for everyday problems. We'll trade self-help for God-HELP!, building upon a child’s cry to his father, leaning on one’s eternal family, and trusting God’s unfailing promises.
