The Message You ll Get through This. Perhaps it s a difficult promise for you to believe. After all, who can understand your struggle? Who s been in your shoes and seen the depth of your pit? You fear the depression will never lift, the yelling will never stop, the pain will never leave. Will this gray sky ever brighten? This load ever lighten? Deliverance is to the Bible what jazz music is to Mardi Gras: bold, brassy, and everywhere. Consider the Old Testament story of Joseph tossed in a pit by his brothers, sold into slavery, wrongfully imprisoned. But God weaved what was meant for evil into good. God is in the business of redeeming the broken. He was then. He is still. Do you crave some hope for these tough times? Then this is the message you need.

The Mission Helping One Million Broken Hearts Find Hope We ve seen the form of the broken. Slumped shoulders. Bowed heads. Weeping eyes. We may not know their individual stories, but the pain is clear. They ve been broken, abandoned, and abused. Casualties of a natural disaster, a hurtful spouse, or the uncertain economy. These are the broken hearts. They don t need a trite word or a pat response. They need hope. They need to know that there s a hand that will reach down and pull them from their very personal pit. Max reminds us that God did just this for Joseph. At the bottom of a well, sold into slavery, and forgotten in prison, Joseph s story rivals the worst of ours. But God never forgot him. In the right way and at the right time, he raised Joseph up and saved an entire nation. What man intended for evil, God redeemed for good. And God will do the same for each of the hurting. Maybe you re one of the broken. If you re not, chances are you know someone who is. Either way, this message is for you and for the millions of struggling souls around the world. Our goal is to help one million broken hearts find hope. Will you help us spread the word? Will you find partners in your community to share this good news? This is a message that will change lives. But only if it makes it into the right hands.
