"Whatever precipice you’re standing on or whatever dark valley you’re walking through, whatever uncertainty, whatever diagnosis or decision or adventure or woe. The Lord himself goes before you. Yes, he himself. And he will be with you."

— Natalie Abbott

Today's episode: Join Natalie Abbott as she explores the profound promise in Deuteronomy 31:8 that God will never abandon his people. She delves into the enduring faithfulness of God to Joshua, to his people throughout time, and to his people still today. She shows how the promise that God will always be with us and goes before us, finds its fulfillment in Jesus. And she helps us see how God's constant presence offers us strength and courage in times of fear and discouragement. This message will encourage you to trust in the God who is constant and safe.

This month's memory verse: The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. — Deuteronomy 31:8

"One night I'm sitting out in my car, smoking a cigarette, and I look up at the church (cause it's always lit up) and the tree that's on the front corner...is engulfed in flames. I got joy for a second, you know. Like, 'oh this is good.' But I'm looking at it, and it's burning...but it's not being consumed."

— Patrick Mahon
