Finding God's Presence in the Dark Seasons of Life with Dustin George

Discover how to find hope and strength in life's darkest moments with our guest, Dustin George. In this episode, Dustin, a lead pastor and author from East Tennessee, shares his personal journey of enduring 20 years of trials and how these experiences inspired his new book, "Before Dawn: Knowing God's Presence in the Dark Seasons of Life." He enlightens us on ways to recognize God's presence even when it feels like it's absent, offering a fresh perspective for those grappling with hardship.

We'll explore the difference between mere commitment and true surrender to God's will. With heartfelt anecdotes and biblical insights, we talk honestly about what surrender is, why it feels so difficult to surrender, and why surrender is ultimately the way to embrace a greater plan and find purpose in our pain.

This episode promises to offer hope, reassurance, and practical guidance for anyone seeking to navigate the storms of life with renewed faith.
