When You’ve Been Wronged
Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

When you read the headlines, the future looks dark. But believers in the race of life know the goal line is not affected by this present darkness. Peter wrote that we’re born again to a living hope. How does this hope change our daily lives and prepare us for the world to come?
