Are you feeling trapped in a difficult situation, a hard marriage, or a season that feels entirely hopeless? Discover how to draw near to God and find the divine wisdom you need to overcome your hardest battles.

In this powerful message, Elliott Warren dives into the life of Abigail from First Samuel 25. Abigail was a discerning and wise woman trapped in a miserable marriage to a harsh, badly behaved man named Nabal. Yet, instead of becoming bitter because of her marriage, she drew near to God. Her story reveals that God can take the very circumstances causing you pain and use them to forge deep character and incredible wisdom in your life.

If you've ever asked, "How did I get here?" or wondered if God can still use you, this sermon offers profound hope. Learn why it's crucial to seek God for insight instead of yielding to anger, which can cause you to make decisions you will regret. Be encouraged that God has not forgotten you, and He knows how to pull you out of obscurity to be a leader who changes the narrative of your family's future.
