Update from Chris Brooks /The Reason for Church with Brad Edward

Chris Brooks updates us on his daughter's health journey and shares insights from the Lord as he watches over her and his family this season.

Loneliness, stress, and anxiety are reaching record highs, and many are discovering that simply "following their hearts" isn’t leading to true joy. A deep spiritual hunger is growing—but where can lasting fulfillment be found? Pastor and author Brad Edward reveals how the church is God’s spiritual greenhouse—a place where weary souls are restored and empowered to thrive in this life and for eternity.
