God on a Backhoe: Embracing Divine Support in Tough Times
God has always done the heavy lifting, the grunt work, a bulldozer operator from the get-go. He wants our freedom more than we want it. He is doing all he can to open up all the good stuff for us, love, joy, peace, and wholeness. And he's relentless.
Imagine trying to fix a broken machine with just a tiny screwdriver while a powerful backhoe stands ready to help. That's the vivid metaphor used in this episode of Broadway UMC's Pathway podcast.
