With the increasing restrictions on day-to-day life, many of us are missing and grieving the loss of being together. Since the beginning of the year, we've been going through a series - In The Valley - looking at 'valley' emotions, those difficult emotions we have to deal with.
As we continue through the valley that is Coronavirus, it's important to fix our minds on God for our comfort and protector.

This is a tough topic. We believe that God has something to speak into all the circumstances of our life, including fun times and tough times.

To trust that God's word speaks into all areas of our lives. And to trust in the power of the Holy Spirit as we delve into this topic.

The imagery of 'anger' is often fire - burning with anger, smouldering with anger, anger flaring up inside us. There's always a spark to it as well, something that sets us off. Do you get irritated, annoyed, or frustrated? Don't we all. Tim continues our In the Valley series with this look at Psalm 137, and the anger contained within.
