Desert Places are seasons of great stress, fear, and grief. Maybe you lose your job, or a relationship ends. Maybe you get sick, or you have problems with a child who is going in the wrong direction. Or maybe, someone you love suddenly dies. Without warning, your life now feels empty, dry, and thirsty.
Desert Places is a series of messages about traveling through grief, disappointment, and heartbreak. Filmed entirely on location in the deserts of Utah, you'll find out how to navigate the desert of life, and most importantly, what God says in His word.
We pray it eases your journey,
Pastor Curt & Dawn

Either place is fine, but the video quality is better here at the website than Facebook because Facebook compresses video quality.
