God is Not Mad at You and Never Has Been!
It breaks our hearts when people talk negatively about themselves. Most of the time, this is based on a belief that, at our core, we are probably a disappointment to God, that God is mad at us.
We have talked about how the message of Jesus has been distorted and replaced with these false lies that you are broken, that you need saved.
That is NOT from Jesus or God and we call bullshit!
For us to understand how truly loved, how absolutely beloved we are, can change everything!
