Fractured Faith
What do you do when the faith you once held crumbles in the face of doubt, abuse, rejection, or injustice, even within the church? Bible teacher Lina AbuJamra gets it. She walked that road and it nearly deconstructed her Christianity. She will share her story and take your questions about finding your way back to God even while you struggle with the pain. Don’t miss the next edition of Equipped with Chris Brooks.
