Fostering Friendship | Message 3 of 3

July 23 & 26, 2026 | Ron Merrell, Teaching Pastor

When someone is walking through loss, trauma, disappointment, or confusion, our words and presence can either bring comfort or add weight to an already heavy burden. The book of Job gives us a powerful picture of both the beauty and danger of trying to care for someone in pain.
