Does God care when we\u2019ve been wronged and we long for vengeance? Where do we turn in the inevitable seasons of sorrow, longing, pain, or spiritual drought? In \u201cBetween a Rock and Hard Place,\u201d we will survey the Psalms that give us a snapshot of the range of human emotions experienced by God\u2019s people. We will find that the Psalms offer us a prescription for the soul that will equip us to navigate life\u2019s challenges with honesty, trust, and a deepening faith in the LORD our Rock.<\/p>\n<div
