In this togther
Viruses are a part of this fallen world. Romans 8:22 says that “the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.” Our world needs Jesus, and as a result of the fall, our imperfect bodies are susceptible to viral disease such as COVID-19. That’s why it’s important to keep our heavenly perspective and “trust in the Lord with all your heart” (Proverbs 3:5) and remember His promises: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1).
COVID-19 is affecting all of us in different ways. As the church, we are uniquely equipped to bring the light of Jesus to those around us in this time. Whether you’re in a position of needing help, or you’re able to give help, you’ll find everything you need to know on this page.
