Session Description
As it said in this description, it seems that almost every time we turn on the news there is another disaster wreaking havoc in people's lives. And yet in spite of that, we still see Jesus in our world. Because of all the disasters in the world, and because these disasters often hit close to home, often they are hardest on people of faith who struggle with questions. We will reflect on how disasters affect congregations, and how to prepare for these times of disaster.
