    In a time of famine, Elimelech and his family run from God to the land of God’s enemies, and pay a steep price as they do what seems right in God’s eyes. How will we respond in the time of our own “famines?”

We don’t always have the tools to navigate an emotional roller coaster, especially if we’re dealing with something that we’ve never faced before.
