Many people don't like the story God is writing in their lives. The mistakes, failures, tragedies, and circumstances outside of our control linger in our minds and hold us back. How do we come to grips with the pieces of our stories that we wish weren't there? How do we silence the pain of what has been done to us and the shame of what we've allowed to be done through us? In When You Don't Like Your Story, Bible teacher Sharon Jaynes shows us how God untangles our most painful emotions with the fingers of grace, putting his redemption on display.

He wants to bless you and bless people through you. You are a beautiful, vast, ornate demonstration of God’s thoughts and hope for humanity. Join Sarah Jakes Roberts for this six-week audio Bible study exposing the truth that you were born to bring light to the darkness, a revolution of faith to the next generation, and a smile in the wild!
