Stories of grace, forgiveness, and redemption through Jesus at Center Church.
Unlearning the God I Thought I Knew
For much of her life, Trina Lynch believed that being loved by God depended on being good enough. If she could manage her fears, control her circumstances, and get everything right, maybe she would finally find peace. But through suffering, treatment, the support of her church community, and the gentle work of God's grace, Trina began to discover a different truth. She didn't have to earn God's love. She only had to receive it. Her story is one of surrender, healing, and learning that grace was never reserved for those who have it all together.
