Lessons Learned

A pastor friend of mine is fond of saying that God never wastes an experience. I recently heard a powerful testimony of the truth of that statement. I had the opportunity to talk with a friend who is the Communications Director for a well-known, high profile church. Over the last couple of years they have faced some really, really tough times.
