Sermon Series - Starting January 5, 2025
Finding Hope Through Trauma
Trauma touches everyone, whether through personal pain, loss, or struggles we don’t always see. Many people carry these wounds in silence, feeling isolated and unsure where to turn. At Christ Greenfield, we believe no one should face these challenges alone.
During this 4-week series, we’ll explore how God meets us in our hardest moments to bring healing and hope. Drawing from powerful stories in the Bible—like Peter, Job, Elijah, and the Woman at the Well—we’ll discover how God uses even the most painful experiences to restore and transform. Whether you’re processing your own pain or want to learn how to support others, this series is a safe space to explore, heal, and connect with a community that cares.
