Halftime

Dave Briggs

·

Have you ever found yourself in a painful season where everything feels hopeless and silent?

Pastor Dave Briggs takes us into what he calls "halftime": those agonizing moments in life when the story is only half-written and nothing makes sense. Whether it's Joseph in prison, the Israelites at the Red Sea, or Mary and Martha weeping outside a closed tomb, the Bible is filled with faithful people who found themselves stranded in a devastating halftime.

This message reveals a perspective-shifting truth: our painful halftimes are not a reflection of an absent God, but the setup for His bigger story. It challenges us to move past a fragile faith and build an unshakable faith rooted entirely in who God is, because God does some of His very best work in the second half.

Scripture: John 11:1-44
