    Today we’re talking about the year of disruption, and how it’s affected all aspects of my life. While it may feel like everything has gone wrong, I am here to remind you that disruption doesn’t always have to be a bad thing. This year has been tough for everyone. We’ve had to adapt to new ways of working, learning, and socializing. Many of us have lost loved ones or experienced financial difficulties. It’s easy to feel like the world has been turned upside down, but it’s important to remember that disruption can also lead to positive change. So, while it’s natural to feel uncomfortable with change, let’s embrace the disruption and look for the opportunities it presents. Let’s use this time to reflect on what’s really important in our lives, and make positive changes where we can. And most importantly, let’s support each other through these challenging times. Thanks for tuning in, and remember: disruption doesn’t have to be a bad thing. xoxo Jessica. Broken For A Reason Sermon: https://youtu.be/0coK46mUkYs?si=Y_-KxoRNMhvItXXN
