Are you a beloved mess? Tired of trying to make your family seem as if you’ve got it all together? Exhausted by external standards that seem unreachable or even crushing? 

The Christian life is not about being less of a mess. It’s about admitting that we need to be saved from trying to clean ourselves up. Guest Kimm Crandall frees you to live with the assurance that God loves you right here, right now. He’s not waiting for you to clean up your act before you’re worthy to come to him. In fact, he wants you to stop trying to fix the mess and allow him to wash it away.

Beloved Mess is an episode that is both thoughtful and healing to our weary, worn out souls.
