SURVIVING THE STRUGGLE BUS

SURVIVING THE STRUGGLE BUS

Sometimes, it’s a thin line between riding the struggle bus and feeling run over by it.

Ever been there? Me, too.

The letter of James in the Bible offers us a helpful perspective for surviving the struggle bus (James 1:2-4). To remain joyful in times of trial, we must hold fast to what we DO know.
