Although life isn't always easy, we rarely describe ourselves as "desperate." Usually, we can get by on our own. We figure something out. We do what it takes and we survive. But many people living on earth today are unable to get by. They are literally not surviving.

We don't like to think about that, do we? In fact, if you're like me, you probably want to stop reading this now. Maybe you're thinking about searching for another podcast to play. Please don't.

Admittedly, today's podcast is a little uncomfortable, but it is intended to help us get healing. When you're sick, sometimes the medicine tastes yucky. But it helps you feel better. I'm praying, as you listen today, our discussion will have a similar effect. I'm praying we all start to heal in those places where we really are "desperate," even if we don't yet realize it.
