Faith in Life's Darkest Moments

Through the story of Jeremiah being thrown into a muddy cistern for speaking God's truth, we discover profound lessons about standing firm in faith despite rejection and suffering.

• Jeremiah was punished merely for speaking God's truth to Israel about their coming captivity
• Standing for truth often leads to rejection, but these moments reveal what we truly believe
• Christians in other parts of the world face severe persecution while many American Christians mistake minor inconveniences for persecution
• Depression following loss can be overcome through God's intervention and deliverance
• We each choose to become either "empowered survivors or embittered victims"
• God's perfect love remains constant whether we're obedient or disobedient, in blessing or discipline
