2 Chronicles 7:14 is not God handing out a technique for managing public crisis. It is God speaking to a covenant people whose spiritual life has grown disordered. It is not mainly about controlling outcomes. It is about returning to the God they have drifted from. It is not about earning intervention. It is about becoming the kind of people who can receive healing from the inside out.

Every year at this time, we try to look back at a common theme we have either seen or addressed or both. This year, there has been a consistent topic that has come back time and time again on both the Misfits programming and within the KFM Network as a whole: that the will of God is the redemption of all mankind. So for Advent this year, we wanted to take some time and reflect on how this fits into the Advent season. 

What if suffering isn’t proof that God is absent, but evidence that the Lord Jesus Christ is present in a deeper way, allowing us to experience His love amid the evil in the world?
