Some people love change. Most people hate it. Why? Because change brings discomfort, difficulty, and uncertainty. Change is an unchanging part of life, so we all have to develop strategies for responding to it. Unfortunately, most people offer strategies that don't help you thrive in changing circumstances. They offer strategies that let change kill you. Jesus has the key to facing change in your life. Your support makes TMBT possible. Ten Minute Bible Talks is a crowd-funded project.
